I'm trying to upgrade my yottadb 1.30, which runs perfect on my raspi 4 to 1.38.

But the installation fails and when i try to start yottadb i get the following message:
root@RASPI4:/usr/local/lib/yottadb/r138# ./yottadb -di
%YDB-E-DLLNOOPEN, Failed to load external dynamic library /usr/local/lib/yottadb/r138/libyottadb.so
%YDB-E-TEXT, /usr/local/lib/yottadb/r138/libyottadb.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

libyottadb.so is at the right place, but i can't be loaded.

As you see in the output below the 1.30-version is a "PIE executable", while the 1.38-version is a "shared library". I suspect a wrong compilation.

Can anyone help?

Jens, please post the output of the installation (e.g., with ydbinstall.sh) you ran to install YottaDB. Also, what Linux distribution and release are you using? Thank you.

Jens -

I got the full log that you emailed me. The difference may be something in the libraries between Debian and Raspbian. Can you try ./ydbinstall.sh --from-source --utf8 which will build it from source on your Raspberry Pi 4? Thank you.

Regards

Okay, then I tried:

# ./ydbinstall.sh --from-source --utf8

that worked, but before running my routines I had to set
# export ydb_chset=UTF-8

Thank you Bhaskar for pointing me to this option.
