Good morning!

I saw a couple of threads about boinc having some issues running on CentOS 6.4 x64 and I'm wondering if there is a final fix for this. This is what I'm having right now:

[jfl@slim BOINC]$ uname -a

/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x000000330a600000)


I installed all the required packages for this and that doesn't seem to fix the issue. Am I missing something?

You can install, what is it, 6.10.45? That's the version that's available from its repositories.

Otherwise you can try to build BOINC against the libraries that are on the system. Or build newer libraries for CentOS so that the newer BOINC can run with those libraries.

Lastly, there's the VM option. Run a different Linux in a VM, run BOINC in that.

Hello,

Try and install the following also make the symlinks
Install libstdc++ and compat-libstdc++
yum search libstdc++
yum install libstdc++
yum install compat-libstdc++*

Symlink to libstdc++

locate libstdc++.so
cd /usr/lib/
ln -s libstdc++.so.5 libstdc++.so.3
cd /usr/lib64/
ln -s libstdc++.so.5 libstdc++.so.3
