Hi ,
        For our product we generally compile the binaries on 32 bit
systems
and use them for both 32 and 64 bit systems. like we have same
binaries
for
32 bit and 64 bit RHEL.

We are porting the product to FreeBSD and when we tried the same,
i.erunning binaries compiled on 32 bit FreeBSD
6.2 on 64 bit FreeBSD system they produce *core dump.*


Any known reasons, do we have to compile binaries on 64 bit machine.
This should not happen. I would blindly guess at a linking problem. Are
you
using any shared libraries that do not belong to the base system?

Yes i am using few libs not built on FreeBSD but they work fine on 32
bit
freeBSD , so in principle they shud have the same behavior on 64 one.
I suppose you are aware that they have to be 32-Bit libraries as well, for
your 32-Bit application to work?

I didnt get what do you mean.

Do you mean :

I should install lib32 on freeBSD and then rebuild my applications in order
to make it work on 32 and 64 bit systems .

rite now I have built my app on 32 bit system (which is not having lib32
installed), it works on 32 bit freebsd but fails on 64 bit system.

The app needs 32-Bit libraries tu run on 64 Bit. I suggest you link your program statically against libraries that are not part of the base system. That way everything should run just fine.
