[omniORB] _omniidlmodule.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32

[Pearl Rothman]

Hi,

I am new to CORBA and working on red-had linux client release 5.3, version
2.6.18-128.el5.

I downloaded omniORB-4.1.0-2.i386.rpm and installed it.

When I try to compile a sample in omniorb documentation, I get the following
error.

omniidl -bcxx echo.idl

omniidl: ERROR!

omniidl: Could not open IDL compiler module _omniidlmodule.so
omniidl: Please make sure it is in directory /usr/lib
omniidl: (or set the PYTHONPATH environment variable)

omniidl: (The error was '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/_omniidlmodule.so:
wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32')

Can you please help,

Thanks,
Pearl Rothman

Where did you download that from? Quite aside from the specific problem
you see, omniORB 4.1.0 is now very old.

omniidl: (The error was
ELFCLASS32')

The binaries you have are obviously incompatible with your system.

I'd suggest that you build omniORB from source. That way it will
definitely match your platform.
