RHEL 2.1 support for BixAgent
Hi, is there any plan to add RHEL 2.1 support for BixAgent ? Thanks.
Hi, I have only tried on one machine, a build server which has most of the RPMs. Do you want me to test with a different configuration ?
We had a build of the Community Edition up to version 2.3 for older systems.
But we dropped it because of issues with newer features. Can you evaluate BixAgent on another configuration?
The professional edition stil provides compatibility for Redhat enterprise 2.
Hi, and thank you for the answer. We were interested in the Community Edition and therefore will go towards another product.
Thank you for providing support and for the Community Edition, I know it must be hard to try and support every distro out there...
Have you tried running the community edition as a test?
If any, which errors do you receive?

Hi. I'm terribly sorry but I got stuck on urgent matters at work and did not follow up with this thread. I tried installing the community edition on a RHEL 2.1 server today and got this error launching the agent:
[root@solo bixagent]# ./bixagent
./bixagent: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Here is the output of ldd:

And the relevant RPM packages installed on the system:

There is no compat-libstdc++-33 package for RHEL 2.1.
