The Application Formerly Known as FlashCom

A while back I did a post on installing FlashCom on Fedora Core 3. Tonight I decided to download the latest version of FlashCom now known as Flash Media Server 2. I ran into an install problem with Fedora Core 4 and wanted to mention how I got around it.

When trying to run the installer (./installFMS) I kept receiving the following error:

error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5

I basically had to update the package using the following command:

yum install libstdc++.so.5

After selecting yes a couple of times I had the necessary packages to support the install. The second thing I’d like to mention is that running the installer without any parameters gave me the following error message:

ERROR: Your distribution, unknown, is not supported by this
Macromedia Flash Media Server installer.

By telling the installer to only warn me (./installFMS -platformWarnOnly) I was able to successfully get Flash Media Server installed.
