Ubuntu – How to start db2 after Ubuntu 9.10 upgrade? Missing libstdc++.so.5

db2Ubuntu

I just upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10 and now my db2 is not starting anymore. The error message reads as follows:

db2start: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I guess, this is, because Ubuntu now uses version 6 as I can see in Synaptic. Is there a way, to tell DB2 to use the newer Version or do I have to Install the 5er Version? Will this somehow conflict with the 6er?

Found some threads about the same problem with other programs. The solution is to install the 5er version. It can be downloaded from http://packages.debian.org/lenny/i386/libstdc++5/download.

First make sure ssh is running, you can do this via

/etc/init.d/ssh status

If it is not running, start it by using the same command but replacing the status with start.

If that doesn't work check your interface configuration to make sure you are connecting to the right IP.

ifconfig eth0

Since you used dhcp to get an IP this might have changed.

There is a chance your firewall might be blocking it, you can open port 22 (it should be opened by default) by:

iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT

Finally post the contents of /var/log/auth.log and /var/log/syslog while you are trying to connect.

Starting at the end - you are booting from a live cd, and getting io errors. This could suggest that your live cd may have an issue that is causing the error as it tries to load the library.

I would burn the disk again to see.

It could also be caused by some sort of hardware fault on the machine itself, so running memtest86 overnight would be a good check.
