Need linux help, i need a libc.so.1 file...

Post by NeilW »

Ok, well im not very good with linux and i know a few people here are so was wondering if anyone knows how i can get hold of a file called libc.so.1, apparently i need it to run an apache module im trying to get working but its not where it should be. I seem to have libc.so though. been looking through many pages on google and cant find the file, just lots of references to it, Thanks Neil

Generally, if you've got a file/program that needs something like this, then there's something quite wrong with your Linux distro. Perhaps the Apache thing you're using is designed for a specific distribution of Linux? It really is best to just stick with stuff installable by your distribution's tool, e.g. rpms for RedHat or debs for Debian.

If you want to muck around still, at the risk of ruining something, you could try to symlink your libc.so to libc.so.1. In the directory that libc.so lives in, type "ln -s libc.so libc.so.1". This isn't advised, but you can always delete libc.so.1 afterwards.
