I have just installed UIB components and there are components on the palette. Using MEPIS 6.0 and lazarus 0.9.20 beta. Just downloaded the latest UIB extracted to /usr/share/lazarus/components and installed the .lpk in /source.

You were installing in one of them, but you started the other one. (one in /usr/lib/lazarus, and one in /usr/lib/shared) Next question is: which distro do you use? If it's FC, you probably installed the rpm provided by fedora, which installs in /usr/lib/lazarus. But the rpm you can download on the lazarus website installs to /usr/shared/lazarus > And everything looked like it compiled fine too, at least no visible > errors that I could see. I still find it stranghe, though, that he can't find the firebird- client-library. But I think you've installed something else wrongly.. -- Met vriendelijke groeten, Joost van der Sluis CNOC Informatiesystemen en Netwerken http://www.cnoc.nl _ To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject archives at http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailarchives

You were installing in one of them, but you started the other one. No, I installed twice, but the second time only after uninstalling the first. I don't have two separate installations. (one in /usr/lib/lazarus, and one in /usr/lib/shared) The only installation that I have is in /usr/lib/lazarus. There is no /usr/lib/shared directory, et al or even as I think you mean, /usr/share/lazarus either. Next question is: which distro do you use? If it's FC, you probably installed the rpm provided by fedora, which installs in /usr/lib/lazarus. But the rpm you can download on the lazarus website installs to /usr/shared/lazarus I am using CentOS4.4 and I installed the following from sourceforge: fpc-2.0.40-i586.rpm fpc-src-2.0.4-0.i386.rpm lazarus-0.9.0.20-0.i386.rpm And everything looked like it compiled fine too, at least no visible errors that I could see. I still find it stranghe, though, that he can't find the firebird- client-library. But I think you've installed something else wrongly.. Yes, very strange. As I mentioned in another thread, I am pretty new to linux so I wasn't sure what the behavior of shared objects (dll's) would be. It just made sense that the components would look first in the application directory, but is not finding them. I even tried putting copies where I thought it might look for them such as /bin, /usr/bin, /usr/lib, etc. and still no love.

Just so that it will be archived, I wanted to post the resolution to the original issue I had and the reason for this post. I was unable to using firebirdsql related components because they complained they they could not load the appropriate library (libfbclient.so). Hopefully someone who is wondering why firebird related components cannot load the libfbclient.so library will find this. The text of the post is listed below. Installing compat-libstdc++-33 fixed the problem on my CentOS 4 box. -- Warm Regards, Lee > Installing from the rpm, no programs can run because they say that > client libraries cannot be loaded.

I don't know which packages are required by CentOS, but this is a common issue: you need a C++ library compatibility package. compat-libstdc++-8 (Fedora Core 3) compat-libstdc++-33 (Fedora Core 5; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4) This should fix it.
