ibm_db fails to install on CentOS 6.6

[Matt Harris]

Hi,

I'm trying to install ibm_db on a CentOS 6.6 server. Below is the output of the module install command, node version, and the output of uname and gcc -v.

-bash-4.1$ npm install ibm_db

npm WARN package.json rate...@0.0.1-SNAPSHOT No repository field.

npm WARN package.json rate...@0.0.1-SNAPSHOT No README data

npm WARN package.json rate...@0.0.1-SNAPSHOT No license field.

npm WARN deprecated grace...@3.0.8: graceful-fs version 3 and before will fail on newer node releases. Please update to graceful-fs@^4.0.0 as soon as possible.

Thanks for any help you can provide. I have another server with node 0.12.4. ibm_db installs successfully there.

See this issue:

It looks like your gcc is a few versions behind -

Perhaps this is your issue?
