Impossible to install IDS 11.5 on ubuntu 8.04
A user couldn't install IDS 11.5 on Ubuntu 8.04: the installer's prerequisite check kept demanding libc.so.6 and libm.so.6 even though ldconfig -p showed them present. Suggestions were to run the installer with the -disable-checks argument, and to make sure the directory holding the libraries (typically /usr/lib) is in an exported LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The poster reported back that using -disable-checks let the installation complete successfully.

Hi all, I'm trying to install IDS 11.5 on a Ubuntu 8.04 but I always experience the same problem : the prerequired check system stops the installation and asks me for the librairies libc.so.6 and libm.so.6. I have already installed them, if I do a ldconfig -p, they are here ... I have seen and followed the machine notes and now I don't know what to do. So if someone has an idea, I'm ready to try ... Thx
Does it make any difference if you install with the -disable-checks argument to the installer?

Thx, I can try but it's really the solution ? If the system don't find the librairies, how can I be sure that it works correctly ?
are the librarys are in your searchpath? Joerg Volz "Center, negative on the traffic. I see only a flock of birds." "Well, look closer.

find those two files and make sure that the directory containing them (usually /usr/lib) is in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable and it is exported.

Hi, So I just want to inform you that I have followed the Guy's solution and so used the -disable-checks option. The installation has finished successfull. Thx for your help. Loïc
