    wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

    Hello,

    I'm new to this forum.. Need some suggestion on the below error. Feedback will be really appreciated.

    When I try to run a script it points to library which looks like not compatible with this module.
    Is there any way to rectify the issue.

    [root~]# /usr/local/bin/tstart.tcl
    tclent: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/local/lib/tnm3.0.0.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

    Thanks inadvance

    Where did that /usr/local/lib/tnm3.0.0.so library come from? Is it 64-bit, and you are running 32-bit OS/tcl, or vice versa?

    It sounds like your tcl stack is 32-bit, but the library it is trying to load is a 64-bit one. Are you running 32-bit, or 64-bit Linux?

    Hi,

    I'm running 64bit linux (Redhat 5.5).

    How can we resolve this issue.. Do I need to manually install 32 bit library modules? If so can I find those modules in iso image?

    I can't find a native package containing that library in the official RHEL repos. Where did you get that /usr/local/lib/tnm3.0.0.so library?

    What happens if you were to move that file temporarily (e.g. "mv /usr/local/lib/tnm3.0.0.so /usr/local/lib/tnm3.0.0.so.bak", then run your tstart.tcl program?

    Is there an interpreter listed at the top of tstart.tcl (usually the first line)? What is it?

    How did you install tcl/tk?

    And are you sure you are running 64-bit? Check for long-mode in your processor flags:
    Code:
    grep ^flags /proc/cpuinfo|grep --color [[:space:]]lm

    Did you install the x86_64 version of TCL, or did you install the i686 (32bit) version? To find out, execute the command "yum list tcl" and it will show what's installed and what's available. On my system the output is:


    Installed Packages
    tcl.x86_64 1:8.5.7-6.el6 @sl
    Available Packages
    tcl.i686 1:8.5.7-6.el6 sl
