Dear all,
I was just confronted with a request to install for a proof of concept a
Wiki (Mindtouch DekiWiki) under Linux s390x.
The application uses parts developed on .NET which is supposed to run under
MONO 1.2.2 and above (I think it is tested till 1.2.6). There exists a
noarch.rpm to install it on SuSE SLES10.
I cannot make it run under s390x and I don't know why. On purpose I have
installed a clean SP2. No patches are applied. I did in the beginning an
installation with all the recent updates and it shows the same problem.
On the Intel server the aplication starts:
/srv/www/dekiwiki/bin # mono mindtouch.host.exe

Under the s390x I get:

Also DekiWiki wants packages that I can't find. Those are not relevant for
the .NET part but I am not sure if those are inegrated in other packages.
For example: I find in YAST a package php5-xmlreader but NO php5-xmlwriter.
Also some of the php5-pear packages don't exist. Where can I get those?
php5-pear-auth_sasl
php5-pear-date
php5-pear-db
php5-pear-file
php5-pear-log
php5-pear-mail
php5-pear-mail_mime
php5-xmlrpc
php5-xmlwriter
Any help would be highly apprechiated.
