Cannot install RealVNC viewer on RHEL 6 - 64-bit

I am trying to install RealVNC viewer on my RHEL6 server (kernel 2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64). When I ran the RPM, I got the error
libICE.so.6 is needed by vnc-4.1.3-1.i386
libSM.so.6 is needed by vnc-4.1.3-1.i386
libX11.so.6 is needed by vnc-4.1.3-1.i386
libXext.so.6 is needed by vnc-4.1.3-1.i386
libXtst.so.6 is needed by vnc-4.1.3-1.i386
But these packages are already installed on my server. Is this error because the VNC viewer is for 32-bit systems while my server is 64-bit? If so, how can I get around this problem, as I can't find a free 64-bit version from RealVNC.
Thank you.
Regards,
Rayne

RealVNC version 5.0 is now available and is fully support by Red Hat 6 and clones.

Gitlab on suse linux

I want to install Gitlab on the suse linux OS.
Could some one please suggest me which OS supported Gitlab installer from the available ones on Gitlab site : Ubuntu, Debian and Centos can be used to install Gitlab on Suse linux ?
OS details :
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64)
VERSION = 11
PATCHLEVEL = 4
I'm afraid that Suse is a complete different system. They use a package manager called YaST that won't be compatible with any of the proposed OS on the GitLab website.
Alternatively, you can try installation via Docker (Hopefully your system is 64bits):
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/tree/master/docker
Or the hard way, manually:
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/doc/install/installation.md
Or even pop an instance somewhere in the cloud but this would involve some costs.
For all other OSs it has packages to install all the required components, but for SUSE there is no package, so you will have to install all the required components like ruby, redis, mysql and other dependent libs on your own.
You may like to try this :

Since I found this answer while looking for the installation on SUSE 12 (SP3), there is one of the currently working options (2021).
First, check the version supported on the system, (Gitlab 12.1 in case of SUSE 12 SP3, which corresponds to OpenSUSE 42.3)
After that, get the proper .rpm file using wget.
Install with
sudo EXTERNAL_URL="http://gitlab.my.domain" rpm -ivh path/to/file/filename
That's it. Some Versions of Omnibus for SUSE are supported directly, but it really depends on the host system version.

Install MonoDevelop IDE for Redhat Linux

I am trying to install and configure MonoDevelop on my Oracle VM Virtual Box. The Operating System that running on the VM is RedHat Linux.
With the help of the below link, I have installed the mono-2.10.8 and also I was able to compile and run the sample c# source code on Linux through the shell.
Here
Now, I am trying to install or configure the IDE, please advise me for the good IDEs.
Thanks for your help
Installed Monodeveloper from the below link. I chose the Operating System as CentOS
MonoDevelop
This will also install mono-opt from the home:tpokorra repo
mono-opt is the latest stable version (3.6) on mono available from Mono Project
I found this way much easier for installing mono on redhat / centos 6

How to compile a linux app to run on a shared web server

I am trying to get a small C application to run on my web server. The web hosting company is HostGator and we have their least-expensive plan 'Hatchling'
Unfortunately this particular plan does not provide access to a compiler, which means I'll need to build it on a similar machine to that server and transfer the executable there.
My question is how 'close' do I have to get to the Linux distribution on that web server for this to work? I currently have a recent Ubuntu in a VM and would like to use it for this process but maybe some complex differences in how Ubuntu compiler chain is built versus what can work on the web server are too great?
Would I need to install the CentOS release 6.5 they use and compile on that?
What do you recommend I do to attack this problem?
John,
P.S. Hostgator runs 'CentOS release 6.5 (Final)' and /proc/version returns "Linux version 3.2.52 (gcc version 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-3) (GCC) )"
It is worth checking that the architecture is the same e.g. Intel - 32bit or 64bit. In theory 32bit will work on a 64bit architecture as long as supporting libraries have been installed.
Dependancies are the other challenge you will have.
Versions of GCC and Kernel versions do not matter too much.

Sun JDK /Open JDK on Cygwin

Is any version of Sun JDK or Open JDK available to be installed on cygwin.
Reason I am looking for this option is: There are many tools (e.g. jStack, jMap) which are available in unix versions of JDK but not for windows version. I need to exploit the same on my windows machine using Cygwin if possible.
The Windows version should work alright, and is now available pre-built
https://github.com/alexkasko/openjdk-unofficial-builds/downloads
The OpenJDK site has build / compile instructions for a Cygwin environment:
I have however not encountered pre-built binaries that are intended to run on CygWin - yet.

How to install mapnik on SLES 11 64 bit?

For a customer I have to install a django webserver on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11, 64 bit (short: SLES 11). Our application makes use of mapnik 0.7.0. My development environment is Ubunto 10.44.
How do I install mapnik 0.7.0 on my SLES 11 machine? My first difficulty is to compile boost. Maybe it's handy to use SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop, or OpenSUSE to compile components?
Several instructions on the web:
Official Mapnik instructions:
http://trac.mapnik.org/wiki/LinuxInstallation
For SLES 10:
http://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/mapnik-users/2010-January/002810.html
(for some redhat distro)
http://gis.638310.n2.nabble.com/Bulding-mapnik-on-RHEL5-td4612325.html
I've started a wiki page for Mapnik on Suse here: http://trac.mapnik.org/wiki/OpenSuseInstallation.
I don't have access to SUSE proper - so hopefully a guide built for the latest Open Suse release will work.
I recommend installing Mapnik 0.7.1 (latest official release).
If you have specific problems with compiling boost then I recommend sending a mail to mapnik-users and I can update the above wiki page with any relevant info.
