a - why are you trying to install the 32bit package? The missing lib is from the 64 bit version…
b - where did you you get the RPM from? I see you started in /tmp, I would have expected you to be in some temporary mount point where you mounted the ISO, or at least see you give the full path to the RPM from the ISO, i.e. “rpm -i /mnt/suse/x86_64/libgcc_s1-4.8.3*.rpm” (of course with an actually matching path, I don’t have the ISO at hand).
Third, I’d expect that to fail with an error “already installed”, hence you’d have to throw in a “–force” parameter, too.
The HDD recovery was interesting, because the HDD seemed dead already.
Sorry I didn’t give you the full story.
FIrstI used a download manager with port 443 for reliable connection to download the ISO.
After this I used winrar to unpack the ISO and then I copied the rpm files to the server.
Should I copy the whole ISO to the server and then mount it?
Is that the problem?
Cheers
[QUOTE=jmozdzen;29099]Hi stevenhendry,
sorry to hear about the failing HDD - but it seems you could restore your data after some work, so it didn’t turnout too bad in the end.

Sorry for the late reply.
I did mount the ISO locally and this works but after a restart the server didnt came online and
I didnt have access to the remote consoles (which I just got today)
Server is up and running, but we are still missing the file:
libgcc_s.so.1: cannot open shared object file
now we have the rpm files and need to install the correct rpm
I did mount the ISO locally and this works
now we have the rpm files and need to install the correct rpm
please mount the ISO (as you rebooted the server, and probably correctly didn’t add it to /etc/fstab) and run “find /yourISOmountpoint -name libgcc_s\*” to find the (non-32bit!) RPM. It should be named similar to “libgcc_s1-4.8.3+r212056-2.17.x86_64.rpm” (note the missing “32bit” in the package name - I’m not referring to the “x86_64” string).
Regarding your other message:
[QUOTE=stephenhendry;29235]Here is my latest update,
it seems that the file is present now on the system but not installed:
sles11:~ # find / -name libgcc_s.so.1
/lib/libgcc_s.so.1
sles11:/var # ls -lh /lib/libgcc_s.so.1
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 110K May 19 07:15 /lib/libgcc_s.so.1
sles11:/var # rpm -ql libgcc_s.so.1
package libgcc_s.so.1 is not installed
i am missing here something…[/QUOTE]
yes, two things:
a - you’re actually looking for the 64bit version of the library (living in /lib64), but found the 32bit version
b - the RPM has a different name from the file, hence your command failed.
Just for the later records, could you please run before and after installing the RPM from the ISO run the command “rpm -vV libgcc_s1”, to see all files that RPMDB knows for the package, and their then current current status?
great news! (Please disregard my other response (I got interrupted while answering, and didn’t catch your latest status update), and thank you for reporting back.)
Hi all,
just for the record: I had the exact same situation after “wagon” from sp3 to sp4.
Getting the lib manually from sp4 dvd solved the issue.
Thanks
