Help - Error - /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.18' not found

plumberg

Hiya, I installed a fresh CentOS 7.9 on a VM and ran all package updates.

I am trying to setup an app and its erroring out:

/lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.18' not found
/lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.25' not found

How can I update the libc.so.6/ GLIBC?

This is my current version of glibc:

Thanks a bunch, will try that out now.

On a side not, why is it not possible to update the same directly via yum?

unmaintained package on the official server

Direct cause: The glibc version which is your elf file dynamic linked is higher than current installed glibc version.

Three ways to resolve:
1. Install higher glibc version
2. Recompile with lower glibc library
3. Recompile with static library

Better use ubuntu 20.04

This has nothing to do with Ubuntu. Also note that 20.04 is LTS version which means it receives less package updates.
