Hello,

I'm trying to install the compiler on my brand new 8-core amd64 running Debian Squeeze (kernel 2.6.32-5-amd64).

I can't run lmutil, although I can see it.

elbereth-lionel:pwd
/usr/local/linux86-64/12.5/bin
elbereth-lionel:ls -l lmutil
-r-xr-xr-x 1 lionel lionel 1474840 May 18 14:36 lmutil*
elbereth-lionel:./lmutil
./lmutil: Command not found.
elbereth-lionel:


Any idea? Thanks!

Apparently lmutil in /usr/local/linux86/12.5/bin works

What should I do?

Hello,

The 12.* compilers use new versions of flexlm that require
'Linux Standard Base' aka 'lsb' be present. You can still
use the flexlm software that came with 11.* release, but
you will eventually need lsb installed on linux.

The most common symptom of the problem will be
a message when you run the compilers
$PGI/linux86-64/12.5/bin/lmutil: No such file or directory

To determine if the problem is lsb, type
% lsb_release
if it returns core-3.0 or higher, you have lsb.

If less than 3.0 or 'n/a' is returned, you need to install it,
and then run the compilers.

For ubuntu, the process is

% apt-get lsb install

on other Linux versions, you need to find the rpm and
install it.


Contact license@pgroup.com if you continue to have problems.

Thank you: I installed lsb and it worked. Only I had to type

apt-get install lsb

Cheers,
