Mark,
Your post was helpful.
What we have found is that fundamental to making the sapdb-ind-7.3.0.15-1.i386.rpm
install correctly was ld-linux.so.2; not a problem said we, we'll just install it off
of glibc-2.2.4-24.i386.rpm.
Unfortunately, that led to the dependency of glibc-common = 2.2.4-24.
Well, ok, we'll just rpm install glibc-common-2.2.4-24.i386.rpm.
But NO!
We got "error" failed dependencies: glibc < 2.2.4 conflicts with glibc-common-2.2.4-24.
Hmm.
We got out the big guns and did a "rpm -Uvh --nodeps --force
glibc-common-2.2.4-24.i386.rpm".
After churning quite awhile, it came out with "package glibc-common-2.2.4-24 is for a
different architecture".
It seems that we are stuck with glibc-2.2.2-26, and without 2.2.4, we are dead in the
water.
We have the latest official version with th 2.4.7-SuSE-SMP October 30, 2001 generation
of Linux kernal, and it appears that the glibc versions are earlier than the versions
installed on the official system.
For now, we will be pursuing PostgreSQL, although it may not be as stable as sapdb
[we're concerned about having to run vacuum all the time], but it does contain both
foreign keys and stored procedures that MySQL does not.
Thanks for responding--it has been helpful.
Best regards,
Douglas

Douglas,
I'm working (slowly) to port sapdb to Linux/390. There are a number of
issues that need to be overcome, one of which is that some of the tools
needed to build the product from source are still Intel binaries. The
source code for the development tools was just released, and there are
problems getting them to compile on Linux/390 as well, so progress has been
rather slow. Part of my problem is a lack of experience with
C/C++/Makefiles, etc. in general, but the SAP employees on the list have
been very helpful so far.

Subject: sapdb on SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 7 for S/390
It isn't clear that it is possible to run sapdb on SuSE Linux Enterprise
Server 7 for S/390 but is worth the effort on our IBM 7060 H30 if it can be
made to work.
The IBM H30 is a 'sort of' intel based machine and runs OS/2 native on the
support element--it is supposed to mostly have the intel instruction set.
This is running in a separate LPAR with SuSE Linux.
In attempting to install sapdb, I set up sapdb-ind-7.3.0.15-1.i386.rpm in
/tmp/linux and tried the following command:
rpm -Uv --test sapdb-ind-7.3.0.15-1.i386.rpm
this resulted in:
error: failed dependencies:
ld-linux.so.2 is needed by sapdb-ind-7.3.0.15-15-1
libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 is needed by sapdb-ind-7.3.0.15-1
I cannot figure out where to get these or how to install them--even if it
does work.
