    Hi, I am dealing with an issue wherein we are unable to install an application on AIX 6.1 TL6. It is giving below error while trying to install the software:

    rtld: 0712-001 Symbol createByteArray__3CSPFUlPCUc was referenced from module clitick(), but a runtime definition of the symbol was not found.
    rtld: 0712-001 Symbol dispose__Q3_3CSP2RT12SmartPointerXTQ3_3CSP4DATA10IByteArray_Fv was referenced from module clitick(), but a runtime definition of the symbol was not found.
    rtld: 0712-001 Symbol __dt__Q3_3CSP2RT12SmartPointerXTQ3_3CSP4DATA10IByteArray_Fv was referenced from module clitick(), but a runtime definition of the symbol was not found.

    We are running cli++ lib version 11.1 and also believe LIBPATH set properly. Anybody please provide some help.

    Hi,
    Never seen anything like this before.
    I would contact AIX Support and the supplier of the software involved.

    There is not much in the error to work on.
    The clitick function it requiring a library to link to at runtime that supplies the functions or data called
    • createByteArray
    • dispose
    • dt

    Sorry that's all I can see here, Nigel Griffiths

    Hi, Thanks for the reply. I could find one similar issue which is solved by adding the directories needed by the application at the beginning of LIB_PATH env variable. i.e. 'LIB_PATH=/a/b:$LIB_PATH' and 'export LIB_PATH'.
