Used version 15.0.0-ebf13194

Ubuntu 6.06(dapper)

Ubuntu x86-32 version

works out of the box. Just give the box some extra System-V shared memory before starting srvbuild(res).

Ubuntu x86-64 version

Does not work at all. This is probably because the Ubuntu/Debian distribution is a pure-64 distribution. The 32-bit library's are not there at all.

It looks like this:

sybase@hercules:~$ which dataserver
/opt/sybase/ASE-15_0/bin/dataserver

sybase@hercules:~$ file /opt/sybase/ASE-15_0/bin/dataserver

sybase@hercules:~$ ldd /opt/sybase/ASE-15_0/bin/dataserver
