vmware-converter-server-1.log:[#9] [2009-10-26 10:15:48.402 F07AEBA0 error 'App'] System PAM libraries are unusable: libpam.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Fixed: apt-get install pam.32bit
32bit PAM module needs to be installed on this 64bit RHEL4 OS
This is for Pxeboot / Kickstart a Rackable server. The first NIC cable is loose, and DHCP is configured to go to 2nd NIC. But kickstart is configured as:
network –bootproto dhcp
which trying to use eth0 all the time, and of course failed all the time.
The fix is to add “ksdevice=bootif” in the line “append” in pxeboot menu, and add “IPAPPEND 2″ line below.
It would show 2 devices to be manually picked in this case, after picking the 2nd NIC, it is working again.

I have been wondering about the following one recently:
http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-9937
Keeping getting this error while the system is not doing much things:
From the process log: Resource temporarily unavailable(solarisThreadCreate: pthread_create failed)
From the command line output: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable
Went to /etc/security/limits.conf, change this user’s limitation:
username hard nproc unlimited
username soft nproc unlimited
It is ok afterwards. Went back to the file and put back the limit, could not reproduce this issue anymore ..
Eventually bumped up the limit from old value 65536 to 130672 (double) for this username, all others are still the same:
* soft nproc 4096
* hard nproc 65336
username hard nproc 130672
username soft nproc 130672

Got the following error message after running one executable:
“error while loading shared libraries: libfilename.so.28: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory”
But when using ‘ldd’ or ’strace’, then everything works fine.
After using rpm -V to verify the package, it seems many files mode got changed, which include the executable.
It was changed from 775 to 2775, once changed it back, then things are Ok. Not sure why, but it needs to be remembered later ..
