Linux Install Probs with Right Bloody Dir Options

[Nexus-7]

This problem is really starting to irritate me. I know it must be something simple that is staring me in the face, but I have been unable to figure it out, so if you guys have any suggestions that would be awesome. At any rate I am 99% certain that I have everything in the proper dir structure. I have installed RCBots before on Win32, but for some reason I can not make this Linux install work!
All the RCBot files are in the following dir:
/home/absolut/hlds_l/rcbot

Dedicated NS server stuff is in:
/home/absolut/hlds_l/ns

WTF am I doing wrong? Here are the logged errors.

Here's a picture of the stupid dir tree as I'm pretty sure it should be...

I have the same problem. It means it can't find a library to load the plugin.

probbably my stupid linux machine building the wrong stupid thing again .. I'll have a shot at it myself.. and release a fix if i can get it to work

[Cheeseh]

yeah i need to make the source sometime.. but its also not a metamod plugin at the same time that complicates things :/ and I need a shared workspace type thing...

anyway my dll file runs fine in linux. I don't know whats up with the dll you're using.

Maybe it got corrupt or something somehow

Try this dll file it is exact same.. it does work with me. (attached)

PS: Make sure all permissions are set okay.

I'm sure its in the right folder and everything but the permissions might able the program to 'see' the .so dll file

If i remember right, the linux build did come up with a warning saying something like "clock skew detected, your build may be incomplete" thuis was because the clocks on my windows machine and linux machine differed. But I didn't think this would be a problem, I don't know why it works on my machine fine though and not anyone elses, maybe I'll have a go at rebuilding after fixing the clocks.

I'll make a new build though with some new stuff etc mentioned so far on the release + maybe the source code since I really should release it since it's required for metamod, but I still need to finish commenting it out and crediting.

Hi,

I had the exact same errors described above. The solution (for me anyway) was to install the compat libraries which contained libc6.2-2.so.3
I'm running SUSE 9 and was able to grab the files easily using yast.

Try to find/install the libraries for your particular *nix distro and it should work

If you already have libc6.2-2.so.3 installed and you get the same error, then something else is going on.

Right now I've the following installed and everything runs fine:
L 01/12/2004 - 00:00:11: [META] ini: Read plugin config for: <rcbot_mm_i486.so>
L 01/12/2004 - 00:00:11: [META] ini: Read plugin config for: Adminmod
L 01/12/2004 - 00:00:11: [META] ini: Read plugin config for: whichbot
L 01/12/2004 - 00:00:11: [META] ini: Read plugin config for: Unstuck Pro

Hope this is useful info

[Cheeseh]

Thanks KidA I guess thats good info to put in the readme or something!

This problem seemed to magically fix itself in 1.2 for me, so YAY! RCBots are back on my server. Happy times.

Edit: I didn't really have time to try the two fixes suggested by you helpful people because I was without internet access for about a month there.
