Libraries problems

Hi All

When I try to run ./secondlife I get this error:

bin/secondlife-bin: error while loading shared libraries: lib/libfreetype.so.6: cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied

I haven't a clue what to do!

Im running a clean install of Fedora 5, all updated

Thanks

I am not sure, but two likely suspects could be SELinux or Exec-Shield.

I am running FC5 with Exec-Shield, so I would start with SELinux:

You can also try search engine searches for that specific error message.

It looks like you are running secondlife-bin from the bin folder.. Don't. There is a shell script called "secondlife" in the root of the tar file that you should run.

It is indeed an SELinux problem. This is the fix that I figured out:

1) Go into System->Administration->Security Level and Firewall
2) Select the SELinux tab
3) Click the triangle to the left of "Modify SELinux Policy"
4) Click the triangle to the left of "Compatiblity"
5) Check the box for "Allow the use of shared libraries with Text Relocation".
6) Click "Ok" at the bottom right.

That should sort it out!
