Intel License Manager for FLEXlm - error

Jay_Jakilinki — Wed, 03 Oct 2012 22:32:28 GMT

I am installing Intel® License Manager for FLEXlm on x86_64 RedHat Linux 5.7 and getting the following error:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*** ./Install_INTEL, version 11.10.0 / : Install_INTEL,v 1.18 2011-12-09 09:12:28 nantonov Exp $
*** Installation started on: Wed Oct 3 18:21:06 EDT 2012
*** System uname -a output: Linux bbpfdta3 2.6.18-238.el5 #1 SMP Sun Dec 19 14:22:44 EST 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
*** Error: installed software will not run; package might be for the wrong platform, or corrupted
*** Command: /apps/opt/bbs/softwares/compiler/flexlm/lmutil > /dev/null 2>&1

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the flex_ug.pdf, the Supported Platforms for Linux are:

- Linux* IA-32 and Intel® 64 LSB (Linux Standards Based) compliant architectures

- Linux* IA-64 architecture on Red Hat* Enterprise Linux* 4

So, I guess, x86_64 is not supported. But what is Intel® 64 LSB (Linux Standards Based) compliant architectures ? Where can I find the definitions or list of these cryptic platform names to be clear ? x86_64 vs. IA-64 vs. Intel 64 (LSB) ?

Looking forward for help...

Found this article - 'FLEXlm License Manager 2.0 may fail when LSB 3 is not met' @ 'http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/flexlm-license-manager-20-may-fail-when-lsb-3-is-not-met' Will try and update.

Hi Jay, Intel® 64 is equivalent to x86_64 in terms of supported systems. Once you have completed the instructions in the article, please let me know if there are any further problems. Sincerely, James Tullos Technical Consulting Engineer Intel® Cluster Tools
