On RHEL8 with an existing installation with GSKit 8.0.50.89,
installgskit doesn't install correctly, if customer ignores this
installation error
you'll see at startup following message:
initialization of libisi.so.2 failed
expected GSKit version: 8.0.55.12, but found 8.0.50.89
And
the symlink for $INFORMIXDIR/lib/libisi.so.2 is not created.
ln -s $INFORMIXDIR/lib/libisi_gsk.so.2.0
$INFORMIXDIR/lib/libisi.so.2 (this is needed)
While trying to installgskit from the $INFORMIXDIR/gskit
distributed with products you'll see:

Either GSKit package is already installed or an error occurred
during RPM package installation.
So, in order to overcome this situation it needs to be run as:
cd /opt/IBM/informix14/gskit
tar xvf gskssl64-8.0.55.17.linux.x86_64.tar
tar xvf gskcrypt64-8.0.55.17.linux.x86_64.tar
rpm -ivh --nodigest --noverify --nosignature
gskcrypt64-8.0.55.17.linux.x86_64.rpm
rpm -Uvh --nodigest --noverify --nosignature
gskcrypt64-8.0.55.17.linux.x86_64.rpm
rpm -Uvh --nofiledigest --nodigest --noverify --nosignature
gskcrypt64-8.0.55.17.linux.x86_64.rpm
rpm -Uvh --nofiledigest --nodigest --noverify --nosignature
gskssl64-8.0.55.17.linux.x86_64.rpm
A side note is that while the GSKit is showing the errors,
edition will always show DE no matter if xx_edition.jar is
installed.
After the GSKit issue is resolved it'll show the correct edition |
