SELinux isn't running now, but I get the same errors when trying to install 10.03. For the record, here are the shared library errors: <!--break--> <code> Preparing to install...

This can happen easily; it is essential that you change neither the total length of the file nor the starting position of the binary part. Please see the bottom part of <a href="http://www.ces.clemson.edu/linux/maple.shtml">this page</a>. (Adjust the filename if you have the single user version.) We know from some users that this helped for installing on Fedora Core 4. Furthermore, try to run the character mode version: <code>./installMapleLinuxSU -i console</code> and ignore all messages on shared libraries for the moment. If that command finishes (the progress bar might stop for several minutes after one third or so) finally, you might have to fix permissions: <code>cd (to the target directory)</code> <code>chmod -R a+x bin/ bin.IBM_INTEL_LINUX/ jre.IBM_INTEL_LINUX/bin/</code> No warranties, however. ;-) The latest comments added to the Post, Can't run or install Maple 10 on Linux (Fedora Core 5) 79995 Wed, 05 Apr 2006 19:19:38 Z Thomas Richard Thomas Richard http://www.mapleprimes.com/posts/42997-Cant-Run-Or-Install-Maple-10-On-Linux-Fedora-Core-5?ref=Feed:MaplePrimes:Can't run or install Maple 10 on Linux (Fedora Core 5):Comments#comment86570 Thanks -- its working! The Clemson web page you referenced was very helpful. The trick is to edit the installer script with binary mode vim (using the -b flag: <i>vim -b Maple1003LinuxUpgrade.bin</i> Then <b>scroll down</b> to the first instance of "export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL" (line 2251) and <b>replace</b> the 'e' in 'export' with '#'. This comments out the line and evidently leaves the installer size intact so those compression errors are bypassed. The console mode suggestion didn't help at all, though.

Running the maple executable (with LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1) causes it to exit with a complaint about libdl.so.2 "error while loading shared libraries: libdl.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" I've tried setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Any help would be extremely welcome. The latest comments added to the Post, Can't run or install Maple 10 on Linux (Fedora Core 5) 90650 Fri, 21 Apr 2006 17:10:33 Z sdo sdo
