How to install and run Sybase software (both v12.5 and v15 releases) on Ubuntu
8.04 Hardy Heron using a chroot environment. Step-by-step instructions:

http://froebe.net/blog/2008/06/26/how-to-install-and-run-sybase-adaptive-server-
enterprise-1254-and-150x-on-ubuntu-linux-804-jeos-hardy-heron-using-chroot-envir
onment/

hope this helps everyone as only ASE 15.0.2 esd 4 has the GLIBC fix that I've
been able to determine.

It is hard to follow, I will download ASE 15.0.2 ESD#5
(x86_64) and give a try on OpenSUSE 10.3 64-bit.

Note that the problem that Jason's post refers to is NOT present in
the 64 bit versions of ASE (at least for 15.0.x) - so you don't need
to do anything in particular to get it to work.

The problem that Jason refers to doesn't apply to 64bit versions of ASE.

You are right, Michael. I tried ESD#5 for x86_64 Linux. It
did not help.

What do you mean by "it did not help"?

I've installed ASE 15.0.2 ESD 4/5 on x86_64 (recent distros) with no
problems, so if you are having problems installing it please post details!

Thanks,

It applied to the 64bit backupserver (the 32bit backup server worked).
I can confirm the problem is fixed ...

the blog post is really for 12.5x and those people on v15 that don't
have a support contract.

Yes, I agreed the doc is not quiet easy to follow to set up chroot.

Is the 1502 ESD #6 addressed the backupserver seg fault yet in Ubuntu
8.04 w/o chroot?

Or 32-bit backup server works fine in 64-bit 8.04, is it true?

Thanks

Correct. The 64bit backupserver hasn't been fixed to work with the
newer GLIBC yet. Last I heard, it should be fixed in 15.0.3 ESD 1.

The 32bit backupserver works fine with a 64bit install of ASE.

The chroot environment is really more for ASE 12.5.x these days.

Is 32-bit 8.10 okay to run on ASE 15.0 or 12.5.4 Developer versions?

I am aware 8.04 (TLS) seems fine with ASA according to Sybase web site.
Anyone out there tries with 8.10?

Hard to decide should I downgrade or not.
