No that looks OK. So, the .so may not be part of the link and may be loaded dynamically in which case ldd won't know about it. Do you get anything in the plugin logs? You can also use truss (Solaris - try strace on Linux) to see what actually happened - ie if the process was actually started and when the request was made for the .so. Cheers Ben

The execute bit is on and the non-root user is the owner of all of these objects. You are right about the paths - they are correct on the server but not in the email.

Here's the vital stats: Suse Linux = AR Server OS Remote Oracle DB (Oracle 10g RAC) AR Server 7.5 patch 005 Non-root install I've only gotten through the AR Install. It installed with no errors. When the server tries to start I keep getting this error: ARMonitor child process (pid:3719) started. ./arplugin LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/remedy/ar/bin:/remedy/ar/pluginsvr:/remedy/ar/arealdap:/rem edy/ar/ardbcldap:/remedy/ar/bin:/remedy/ar/pluginsvr:/remedy/ar/ardbcldap:/r emedy/ar/arealdap:/remedy/ar/webserviceplugin:/remedy/oracle/product/client/ 10204.1/lib:/remedy/ar/jdk1.6.0_20/jre/bin:/usr/lib:/lib Action Request System(R) Plug-In Server Version 7.5.00 Patch 005 201005111542 (c) Copyright 2001-2009 BMC Software, Inc. Action Request System(R) Signal Daemon Version 7.5.00 Patch 005 201005111542 (c) Copyright 2000-2009 BMC Software, Inc. (ARNOTE 0) ARMonitor child process (pid:3719) died with 136. And the signal is 8. (paths above changed since they are considered proprietary but you get the idea....) The LD_LIBRARY_PATH appears to have everything in it that it needs. Support has reviewed our ar.conf file and had us try a few things but so far we have not solved the problem. Also, when I attempt to invoke the plug-in server directly using the line in armonitor.conf I get this error: /remedy/ar/bin/arplugin: error while loading shared libraries: libarcrypto.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory The libarcrypto.so file exists and is in the /ar/bin directory. We have a supported version of Java installed. William Rentfrow Principal Consultant, StrataCom Inc.
