Question

I am getting error when i am executing following command in ec2 machine sudo /etc/init.d/aerospike start

I need aerospike engine in my ec2 machine for test purpose. I used wget -O aerospike.tgz ' http://aerospike.com/download/server/latest/artifact/ubuntu12 to get the file and installed it as the doc says.

Answer 1

I just happened to see this question. Have you resolved it? Did you get the proper version of GLibC installed?

If not, it looks like you are using the 3.5.3 community version, correct?

I tested in AWS on Ubuntu 14.4 M3 large, and it installed and started fine:

ubuntu@ip-172-31-23-5:~$ wget -O aerospike.tgz 'http://aerospike.com/download/server/latest/artifact/ubuntu12
> ^C
ubuntu@ip-172-31-23-5:~$ wget -O aerospike.tgz 'http://aerospike.com/download/server/latest/artifact/ubuntu12'

You may be also to install latest glibc if its an older version.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libc6
