symbol lookup errors in convertd.log

Post by whaslbeck »

Hello,
we've installed Zimbra 8.0 NE on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64bit. Now I'v added some useraccounts and imported some mails (via imapsync from our old Scalix server). Everything seems to rune fine, but I get a lot of errors about an undefined symbol in pdfsr.so in /opt/zimbra/log/convertd.log....:


...

should I worry about this? Any known fix?

8 Year bump. I've just noticed this on an 8.8.15_p9 and an 9.0.0 install.

zimbra@zimbra:~/log$ zmcontrol -v
Release 9.0.0.GA.3924.UBUNTU18.64 UBUNTU18_64 NETWORK edition, Patch 9.0.0_P2.

From what I can see, pdfsr.so gets atan from libc6 and there isn't an issue finding it. Given the keyview binaries were compiled in 2011, I wonder if there's a subtle change in the atan calling format.
A few bugs about it in the bugzilla, and all on Ubuntu, but no resolutions.

For the new error: "blasr: error while loading shared libraries: libpbbam.so.0.18.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory", I just installed that specific version of pbbam. Some additional changes were automatically introduced during installation, but finally it worked. So far so good.
I'm pleased you got it working, although I can't figure out either what you got working or how it's relevant to the problem in the thread.

G'day,

This has been an ongoing issue but I just stumbled across this Wiki post from 2021 with the solution : https://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/Fix_Search ... ttachments

Quote : "Search and indexing with the PDF files are broken because Convertd is unable to parse and index PDF files on Ubuntu OS."

Am I the only one who thinks it's odd that Zimbra has a bug in the Ubuntu version, and obviously knows about the bug. Rather than actually fix the bug, just post a wiki post saying "here's how to fix the the bug" and do it in a manner where you'll have to re-apply the fix any time the zimbra-convertd packaged is updated.

Anyway, at least I have a workaround.
