Hi guys and gals,

I have the replication running on venus, so I copied the whole $SYBASE
dir to mars
and started the database, and I was able to run the rs_init creating
the DRS and the PRS sucessfully
but at a start time rs_init isn't able to bring the PRS up.
So manually I tried to run the RUN file and I'm having this error:

ld.so.1: repserver: fatal: relocation error: file /sybase/sybase_125/
OCS-12_5/lib/libsrv_r.so: symbol syb_net_property: referenced symbol
not found

Then I have updated the machine's patch level, but I'm still facing
the error..

venus:/sybase_125 > uname -a
SunOS venus 5.8 Generic_117350-47 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-Enterprise

mars:/sybase > uname -a
SunOS mars 5.8 Generic_117350-62 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-Enterprise

Any tips?
Thanks!

Is your environment the same? ($LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc.?) I would do
something like:

env | sort > /tmp/env.`hostname

on both boxes and diff them.

Hi Keith!
They differ on the $SYBASE
one is /sybase_125 the other one is /sybase/sybase_125:
04/Sep
mars:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/sybase/sybase_125/OCS-12_5/lib:/sybase/sybase_125/
OCS-12_5/lib3p:/sybase/sybase_125/ASE-12_5/lib:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64=/sybase/sybase_125/OCS-12_5/lib:/sybase/sybase_125/
OCS-12_5/lib3p64:
venus
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/sybase_125/OCS-12_5/lib:/sybase_125/OCS-12_5/lib3p:/
sybase_125/ASE-12_5/lib:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64=/sybase_125/OCS-12_5/lib:/sybase_125/OCS-12_5/

I see. But you are sure the tree you copied is in the renamed $SYBASE
var on the box which doesn't work, no? (You can use "sum", e.g. to
check
the libs it's complaining about.).

Hello,

This error indicates you have different versions of the Open Server
library.

On the server where you were able to start Rep Server do the
following:

Get the PID of the repserver:
ps -ef | grep repserver

Find which Open Server library it loaded:
pldd <PID> | grep libsrv_r

Check the version string of this Open Server library:
strings -a /sybase_125/OCS-12_5/lib/lisbsrv_r.so | grep Sybase

On the server where it is failing to start use the "ldd" command to
find out which Open Server it is loading:
(make sure your LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the same as in the RUN_repserver
file)...
% ldd repserver | grep libsrv_r
libsrv_r.so => /remote/releases/solaris/rel125_rs/OCS-12_5/
lib/libsrv_r.so

Check it's version:
% strings -a /remote/releases/solaris/rel125_rs/OCS-12_5/lib/
libsrv_r.so | grep Sybase
Sybase Server-Library/12.5/P-EBF10072-10071/DRV.12.5.0.1/SPARC/Solaris
2.8 Native Threads/BUILD125-012/OPT/Wed Feb 27 13:54:29 2002

If they aren't of the same version, date, etc. you need to sync them
up properly.
