FreeUDFLibC: undefined symbol

I have 2 new installations of Interbase 6 on 2 different linux servers 1 
RH (not sure of version) on a cobalt raq4 and the other on a Suse 9.2 
installation.

I have basically performed the same installation procedure for both 
boxes and both report the following error when trying to delete records 
from a table.

/opt/interbase/bin/isql: symbol lookup error: 
/opt/interbase/UDF/FreeUDFLibC: undefined symbol: ib_util_malloc

Also I have installed the FreeUDFLibC library as directed and that also 
fails during the 'make install' procedure, although it does produce a 
file in the UDF directory of the interbase installation.

date_functions.o: In function `cdow_long':
date_functions.o(.text+0x2e1): undefined reference to `ib_util_malloc'


There are several of the above messages.

I have scoured the web but cannont find anything that looks like my 
problem... Can someone please help me???

I am not that familiar with InterBase 6.0 on Linux, but with 7.x, I 
would be thinking that following two thoughts:

1.  Make sure the libib_util.so library can be found by InterBase.  That 
is where the ib_util_malloc function resides.  I have the following 
environment variable defined in my local Mandriva installation:

INTERBASE=/opt/interbase


If I do a locate, Mandriva locates the following:

[root@lap-twilk twilk]# locate libib_util.so
/opt/interbase/lib/libib_util.so
/usr/lib/libib_util.so


Actually, the file in usr/lib is a symlink back to /opt/interbase/lib.

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     32 Feb 22 21:24 libib_util.so -> 
/opt/interbase/lib/libib_util.so*


2.  I highly recommend upgrading to FreeAdhocUDF  =>

Hi Tom,

Many thanks for your very quick response.

I didn't even realise there was an updated UDF called FreeAdhocUDF. By 
upgrading to this new UDF it fixed my problem.

Many thanks, I owe you a beer or 10...

IIR InterBase on RAQ4 was a classic architecture so there won't be an
IB_Malloc as it is not necessary..
