Description:
I installed the latest Service Pack on our TEST server. Everything went well, except for the aleph_startup. We get a lot of error messages and Aleph does not restart completely.

We get that kind of lines :

/exlibris/aleph/a18_2/aleph/exe/rts32: error while loading shared libraries: libjava.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
- ABC30
/exlibris/aleph/a18_2/aleph/exe/rts32: error while loading shared libraries: libjava.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[1] 26165
/exlibris/aleph/a18_2/aleph/exe/rts32: error while loading shared libraries: libjava.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
- XYZ30

I know that when I ran util SP4, I got a message about adding lines in aleph_start, but I lost that message and I can't retrieve what line I have to add in aleph_start.

Resolution:
Thanks for installing the SP on our TEST server.

I installed SP 1280 on our PROD server yesterday, using the new util SP procedure. The message that I was looking is is the following :

Please select [0]: 1
Are you sure you want to install Service Pack 1280 Y/[N] Y

Attention: Java support is required for SP installation.
Please add the lines below to the end of $alephe_root/aleph_start,
before the final "exit" command.
Then, run "source $alephe_root/aleph_start" and re-run Service Pack installation:

if ($unix_name == "LINUX") then
setenv JAVA_MACHINE i386
else
setenv JAVA_MACHINE `uname -p`
endif

setenv JAVA_ENABLED TRUE
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH "${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/$JAVA_MACHINE"
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH "${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/$JAVA_MACHINE/server"

press <Enter> to continue

So I added the relevant lines in aleph_start, installed the Service Pack and got no error messages when I restarted Aleph Services with aleph_startup.
