Library Loading Requirements

If the OpenSSL libraries are not in the system's search path, they should be added to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH used by Apache. You will also usually need to add /opt/shibboleth/lib to LD_LIBRARY_PATH as well. Add the following commands to an initialization script such as apachectl to set the proper environment variables before starting shibd or Apache, modifying paths if necessary.

Code Block

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/shibboleth-sp/lib

Known Conflicts

Portions of the libphp4 Apache module are written in C++, as is the Shibboleth SP. There is a known conflict on Unix-based platforms between the PHP extensions libpspell.so and libsablot.so which will manifest itself as segmentation faults when starting Apache. If a site wants to use libphp4.so and Shibboleth at the same time, then one of the following may be done:

. No native packages are available at this time from the project itself.

Solaris environments tend to be very localized and use versions of various packages (such as OpenSSL) that may or may not be up to date. There are few hard and fast guidelines, and you should avoid using Solaris if you aren't familiar with the specifics of your environment.
