  • 1.  Unable to launch SMConsole on newly installed R12.8

    Posted Jan 23, 2019 06:12 PM

    Hi Folks,

     

    In process of upgrading from r12.52 to r12.8.1, I did a clean install of the r12.8.1 policy server on a new RHEL VM and now trying to launch the SMConsole to configure the PS.  I have an SSH session to the server and confirm that X-Windows is working by launching "xclock" and exported the display to my PC, but when launching the SMConsole in "/SM_HOME/siteminder/bin/smconsole" I get the following error:

     

    #pwd
    /usr/pservices/ca/siteminder/bin
    #
    #./smconsole
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /usr/pservices/jdk1.8.0_201/jre/lib/amd64/libawt_xawt.so: libXtst.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

    I've got a case open with CA Support but thinking I may have better luck finding resolution from CA Community.

     

    Much thanks in advance!

    UPDATE:

     

    After much googling it appears that the combination of my RHEL 7 and JDK1.8.0_201 requires that we install the "libXtst.so.6" library.  To install this I ran this command "yum install libXtst" and this resolved this error.
