My guess would be that the pre-compiled Linux binaries on nodejs.org are still built against an earlier version of glibc (I believe I remember this change some time back so that there would be better compatibility with RHEL/CentOS 5.x installations out of the box). This can be verified by using `file` on both binaries. You will see that the pre-compiled binary was built for kernel 2.6.9, whereas the one you built is likely for kernel 2.6.24 or some such. -- Job board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ New group rules: https://gist.github.com/othiym23/9886289#file-moderation-policy-md Old group rules: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
