Installation of Zimbra Desktop under CentOSv6.3

Post by 11640madhan »

My PC is installed with CentOSv6.3 [64-bit], I downloaded zdesktop_7_2_1_ga_b11637_20120906070447_linux_i686.tgz, extracted it and ran the install.pl script as an administrator. However, I am getting the following error after I ran "/opt/zimbra/zdesktop/linux/user-install.pl".
/opt/zimbra/zdesktop/linux/prism/zdclient: error while loading shared libraries: libasound.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Not sure why this requires a sound library!

It needs a sound library to give you an audible notification when email arrives, install the missing library

Bill,

Thanks.
However, after I installed the missing library and tried to launch zdesktop, I am getting the following error.
/opt/zimbra/zdesktop/linux/prism/zdclient: error while loading shared libraries: libasound.so.2: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

Bill,
A clarification please.
Is zdesktop_7_2_1_ga_b11637_20120906070447_linux_i686 .tgz 64-bit?
Further, from one of the posts for the "wrong ELFCLASS error", I came to know that I had to supply a specific switch --libdir.
It seems without that switch the 32-bit alsa sound libraries will also be overwritten with 64-bit libraries.
As I did not know how to revert that, I went to another PC and tried installing alsa sound library and ZDesktop following the specific instructions, however, I got the same error that I got at the beginning!
/opt/zimbra/zdesktop/linux/prism/zdclient: error while loading shared libraries: libasound.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Need guidance on how to proceed further.

you need to install 32bit version of alsa-libs, and maybe you'll have to tweak your $LDPATH to 32bit lib dirs.

No, its 32bit. ZD doesnt even compile on 64bit targets.

(actually, it doesnt compile at all ;-o)
