I am working in node js. I have installed hummus package. It installed properly. I am using this package for modifying the pdf files. While downloading the pdf I am calling hummus. Onclick of download I am getting this error.

Error: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by /var/www/html/node_modules/hummus/binding/hummus.node)

With the help of this link I have updated glibc. But still I am getting the same error. Please help me to find out the issue. I am using CentOs 6.9

You need to install glibc alongside your current installation of glibc as you cannot update to glibc 2.14 directly in centos 6.x safely. Follow the steps below to install glibc 2.14:

  1. mkdir ~/glibc214
  2. cd ~/glibc214
  3. wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/glibc/glibc-2.14.tar.gz
  4. tar zxvf glibc-2.14.tar.gz
  5. cd glibc-2.14
  6. mkdir build
  7. cd build
  8. ../configure --prefix=/opt/glibc-2.14
  9. make -j4
  10. sudo make install
  11. export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/glibc-2.14/lib (for current login session) OR add LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/glibc-2.14/lib in the /etc/environment and perform source /etc/environment(to add env variable permanently)

    Setting `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` doesn't generally work, for reasons explained here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/8658468/50617 – Employed Russian Jul 17 '20 at 03:34

    To fix: `glibc-2.14/build/elf/ldconfig: Can't open configuration file glibc-2.14/etc/ld.so.conf: No such file or directory` I did: `cd glibc-2.14/etc/`, `sh -c "echo 'glibc-2.14/lib' >> ld.so.conf"` – Beginner Jul 23 '20 at 12:50
  • oh my ... everything going well but ...

To install locally, 8th line in first answer became

../configure --prefix=$HOME/.local

then we do not need the "sudo" in 10th line. i.e.

make install

is enough.

You might need to

touch $HOME/.local/etc/ld.so.conf

line 11 becomes:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$HOME/.local/lib"

in .bash_profile of el6

line 8. ../configure --prefix=/opt/glibc-2.14 was erroring out for me

In the end I had to use the following

../configure --prefix=/opt/glibc-2.14  libc_cv_forced_unwind=yes libc_cv_c_cleanup=yes

Ok, I can not reproduce this error. However, this could work:

  1. Download the whole hummusjs package from the author https://github.com/galkahana/HummusJS (e. g. as zip).

  2. Add a new scripts entry in its package.json: "rebuild": "node-pre-gyp rebuild".

  3. cd into the package folder at your desktop and run "npm install".

  4. For safety delete the .binding and .build folder.

  5. Edit the binding.gyp file in the package (new section before 'sources'):

            ],
#added by 11AND2
"conditions": [
[ 'OS=="linux"',
{
    "cflags": ["-include gcc-preinclude.h"]
}
]],
#end added by 11AND2
   'sources': [

  6. Then run npm run rebuild and wait :-)

  7. Try the example which failed and report back. You can also execute npm run test to run the module test cases.

Had similar issue while installing python packages:

pip install requests_gssapi
# OSError: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.33' not found (required by /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/Cellar/krb5/1.20.1/lib/libgssapi_krb5.so)

Reinstalling Homebrew with latest gcc fixed that:

sudo rm -rf /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/
sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Linuxbrew/install/master/install.sh)"
brew install gcc
