IO17525: [Solaris only] ldap_ssl_client_init failed! rc == 118 Unknown SSL error

Tivoli Directory Server, Version 6.0.0.72-ISS-ITDS-IF0072

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Starting with GSKit 7.0.4.38 or later on Solaris only, the
  Tivoli Directory Server client library and utilities fail to
  load GSKit with error:
  
    ldap_ssl_client_init failed! rc == 118, failureReasonCode ==
    118 Unknown SSL error
  

Local fix

• GSKit 7.0.4.37 or earlier does not exhibit this problem.
  

Problem summary

• Starting with GSKit 7.0.4.38 or later on Solaris, the GSKit
  libraries do not explicitly link librt.so, but still require it.
  So unless the application using GSKit has already loaded
  librt.so (which the TDS client does not) the GSKit libraries
  will fail to load due to unresolved symbols. A trace will show
  the error "referenced symbol not found" from dlopen().
  
  The problem has been reported to GSKit development and should be
  corrected in a future GSKit build. In the meantime the TDS
  client utilities (idsldapsearch, idsldapmodify, etc) have been
  changed to explicitly link librt.so as a work around.
  

Problem conclusion

• The fix for this APAR is contained in the following maintenance
  packages:
  | interim fix | 6.0.0.72-ISS-ITDS-IF0072 |
  

Temporary fix
