glibc 2.11 error on Marklogic 8.0 installation on CentOS 6.6

Question

When I try to install Marklogic 8.0 (MarkLogic-8.0-2.x86_64.rpm) on CentOS6.6 it fails with following error:

error: Failed dependencies: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.11) is needed by MarkLogic-8.0-2.x86_64

I checked installed package of glibc and found that GLIB_2.12 is installed. I tried erasing GLIBC_2.12, but Cent OS doesn't allow because it has dependencies.

I would appreciate if somebody help me how to install Marklogic 8.0 on CentOS6.6 keeping glibc 2.12 or how to downgrade glib version on CentOs

Answer 1

I haven't tested myself with CentOS 6.6, but am running CentOS 6.5 a lot. Did you try running this before the RPM?

yum -y install glibc.i686 gdb.x86_64 redhat-lsb.x86_64

HTH!

Answer 2

To add to this: you're seeing this message when you attempt to install because a dependent library is unavailable; in the case of this particular message, if you run this beforehand:

yum install glibc.i686 

You should get past that particular issue.
