Installing node: /lib64/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.27' not found (required by node) error on linux

stackoverflow.com › questions › 74698021 › installing-node-lib64-libm-so-6-version-glibc-2-27-not-found-required-by-n

This error happens when you install Node on an operating system that has a version of GLIBC that is lower than Node can support. For example, Node v18 supports GLIBC v2.7 or later. When you attempt to install Node v18.x on any Linux OS that has GLIBC v2.6 or lower, you will get such errors.

To see the version of GLIBC that your operating system has, execute the ldd command on the terminal:

Copy$ ldd --version

I can suggest three options to resolve this issue:

Either install Node from source code. This will allow you to recompile
Or install an older version of Node that your OS can support
Or upgrade your Linux OS to a newer version.

Observed the same error on the Linux machine of AWS.

This error will also be observed when we have installed Node JS and when we check the version. To resolve the issue we need to have greater than GLIBCv2.6. Amazon provides Linux boxes with GLIBC v2.6 and greater version than this as well. Before starting dev work use the below command to select a suitable machine

command used : ldd --version (on Amazon Linux machine) :

Try installing the active LTS version instead of latest with nvm install 16 (instead of nvm install node) as per the examples.

This was tested on the docker image amazonlinux:2 and correlates to what AWS CDK supports (ref)

Update

LTS has moved on for node, however, as per @djvg's comment, note there is a limitation with amazon linux 2 on glibc, so if requiring node > 16 will need to move to newer amazon linux version, eg: https://github.com/amazonlinux/amazon-linux-2023/blob/main/Release-Notes-Amazon-Linux-2022.0.20220728.0.md

It seems like you are using v.18.0.0 which was the latest but not well-supported.

Try uninstalling that.

Copynvm uninstall 18.0.0

Install a version that is active.

Copynvm install 16.0.0

You should now be using v16 which should be well-supported.

What am I missing here.

The program you are trying to run was built on a system with GLIBC 2.9 (or above).

You are trying to run that program on a system that has GLIBC 2.5 (or older). That will not work: UNIX systems support backward compatibility (old executables continue to run on newer systems), but not the inverse: binaries built on new systems do not (generally) run on older ones.

I have installed Python 2.7

Python has nothing to do with your problem.

Try either installing an older version of [node] or compiling it for yourself.

You confusion about python27 is understandable because many ./configure scripts are python.

Fixing '/lib64/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.27' not found' Error When Installing Node.js on Linux: Next Steps Guide — tutorialpedia.org

If you can’t upgrade your OS or GLIBC, the simplest fix is to use a Node.js version that works with your current GLIBC. First, confirm your system’s GLIBC version. Run: strings /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 | grep GLIBC_ | tail -n 1 # For Debian/Ubuntu # OR (for RHEL/CentOS) strings /lib64/libc.so.6 | grep GLIBC_ | tail -n 1

The only solution to this is to change the Operating System, Amazon Linux 2 does not upgrade those libraries to the latest version. Changing the OS was also suggested by the Amazon Support team check out this article where I described in detail what happened.

Your CentOS is just too old.

You can check which package the library belongs to by running yum provides /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6. In my case (on CentOS 7, but that doesn't matter for this) this is libstdc++-4.8.5-39.el7.x86_64.

If you look up the package for libstdc++ for CentOS 6 on pkgs.com you'll see against which glibc headers it was compiled. In this case you see that the latest version was:

libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4.13)(64bit)

Your output shows that the newer npm version needs at least GLIBCXX_3.4.14.

I guess you can compile node.js yourself against the library versions you have available, but I'd rather update CentOS to a newer release. It will be end of life anyway in November 2020.
