finally we are able to solve it, the solution was to avoid packing the libc.so.6 in the executable so that it searches for it in the client machine and uses the version it finds there, that version would be compatible with ld-linux.so found on that machine.
to accomplish this there are many approaches , we followed a basic approach where we banned any lib from paths like /usr/lib , /lib and / lib/tls go to pyinstaller-1.3/bindepend.py and there is a default exclusion list, just add /lib/tls or any other path which you want to block, then run Configure.py this will generate a config.dat which will not have any entry corresponding to those libs, you can choose to modify the config.dat also but that didnt worked for us. now use your Build.py as usual. --Thanks Rishi Khare On Jul 19, 5:27 pm, Rishi Khare <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > just to add we are using pyinstaller-1.3 and creating an elf version > of executable with one file option. > > On Jul 19, 5:18 pm, Rishi Khare <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > hi all, > > we are facing some problem while running our application on > > different versions of linux. > > we have an application which uses python-2.4.4 , matplotlib-0.90.0 , > > numpy-1.0.1, and numarray. > > we have mainly 2 different types of linux boxes , one older ones with > > kernel 2.4.21-47, gcc-3.2.3 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-56) and other newer > > ones with kernel 2.6.9-42,gcc-3.4.6 (Red Hat 3.4.6-3) > > > we need a wide python to support unicode so we install it from source > > with ./configure --prefix=$prefix --enable-unicode=ucs4 and then we > > install all other modules via python setup.py install > > > when we create the executable on older machine, it runs fine on older > > machine but on newer machine it fails with this message > > > >> relocation error: /tmp/_MEI21064/libc.so.6: symbol _dl_starting_up, > > >> version GLIBC_PRIVATE >> not defined in file ld-linux.so.2 with link > > >> time reference > > > and if we create the executable on a newer machine then it runs fine > > on newer machine but fails on the older machine with this message > > > >> relocation error: /tmp/_MEI9475/libc.so.6: symbol _rtld_global_ro, > > >> version GLIBC_PRIVATE >> not defined in file ld-linux.so.2 with link > > >> time reference > > > ld-linux.so.2 is at the same place on both machines /lib/ld-linux.so.2 > > > any suggestions/solutions how to solve this?any small hints will also > > be of a great help, we need to fix this badly :) > > > --Thanks --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "PyInstaller" group.
