Hey Guys,
I tried out a team and they failed. I tied everything I know and hit many forums to no avail.
I cant run a Yum update I get this message.
root@secure [/etc]# arch
i686
root@secure [/etc]# yum update
/usr/bin/python: error while loading shared libraries: requires glibc 2.5 or later dynamic linker
root@secure [/etc]# up2date
/usr/bin/python: error while loading shared libraries: requires glibc 2.5 or later dynamic linker
root@secure [/etc]#
root@secure [/etc]# rpm
rpm: error while loading shared libraries: requires glibc 2.5 or later dynamic linker
If you think you can fix this send me a quote. This is a Centos 4.4 server with cpanel
Thanks for your help and ideas.

What version of python is installed?

Did you attempt an upgrade to RPM or Python recently?

root@secure [~]# python -V
Python 2.4.3
root@secure [~]#

I just installed that again as I thought that might help.
Still same issues.

Python version should be 2.3.4. glibc 2.5 is not built on el4 normally thus causing newer versions to break. If you need new software, first consider upgrading your OS to 5.4 or revert python back to 2.3.4 before you decide which direction to take if you were to pay for assistance.

RPM version should be 4.3.3 and you'll need 'rpm-python' (ImportError: No module named rpm) installed as well.

Hope this helps!
