    Ref:  https://access.redhat.com/discussions/1986323

    The referenced article references a similar problem, but the specific relocation error is a bit different:  symbol krb5_get_init_creds_opt_alloc.  The article touches on the fact that the output of the 'ldd' command for Kerberos commands references shared object that are in the path of the web agent rather than all shared objects being in /lib64.  The article ends inconclusively and no solution is presented.

     

    I'm setting up a proof-of-concept for a customer in a lab environment.  On the Linux CentOS 7.3 server where I want to host the authentication scheme with an Apache 2.2.27 web server and SiteMinder web agent, there are multiple references to shared objects being in the webagent path rather than lib64:

    [root@avid-cfv142 etc]# ldconfig -p|grep krb5

    Anyone know how to steer around the relocation errors such as the one below being thrown by Kerberos commands?

    [webadmin@avid-cfv142 krb5]$ kinit some_account
    kinit: relocation error: kinit: symbol krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_fast_ccache_name, version krb5_3_MIT not defined in file libkrb5.so.3 with link time reference
    [webadmin@avid-cfv142 krb5]$

     

    These are the Kerberos environment variables in effect:

    [webadmin@avid-cfv142 krb5]$ env | grep -i krb
    KRB5RCACHE=none
    KRB5_TRACE=/home/webadmin/krb5/logs/krbtrace.log
    KRB5RCACHETYPE=none
    PWD=/home/webadmin/krb5
    KRB5_CONFIG=/home/webadmin/krb5/krb5.conf
    KRB5CCNAME=/home/webadmin/krb5/cache/krb5cc
    [webadmin@avid-cfv142 krb5]$

    I found that this error was resolved by adding this environment variable:

     

    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
