    Issue:


    When we try to validate keytab files using kinit, we get the following
    error:

     

    kinit: relocation error: kinit: symbol

    krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_pac_request, version krb5_3_MIT not
    defined in file libkrb5.so.3 with link time reference

    Please note that kinit is linked to SSO’s libs, due to the
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH configuration for smuser

     

     

    $ ldd $(which kinit)
    linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007ffe6adbb000)

    libpcre.so.1 => /lib64/libpcre.so.1 (0x00007fa8d4121000)

     

    To solve this error, the only workaround found is to override
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH in order to use system libraries

    $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib64:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}

     

    Is that correct?

     

    Environment:

     

    Web Agent 12.52SP1CR06 on Apache 2.4 on RedHat 7

     

    Resolution:

     

    You can modify the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to get the system lib in /lib64
    loaded before Siteminder internal libraries"

     

    LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set in ca_ps_env.ksh for siteminder
    dependencies. Since Policy Server 12.7 is 64 bit, references in

    LD_LIBRARY_PATH should point to 64bit libraries, jvm included
