Forecast command error - wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

Products

• CA Workload Automation AE - Scheduler (AutoSys)

Issue/Introduction

When running the forecast command on the command line, we received the following Sybase error.

We use kerberos authentication to logon to Sybase.

I am able to logon to Sybase manually using the ID I am logged on as.

$ forecast -J job123 -F"2021-02-26 00:00" -T"2021-02-26 23:57"

Environment

AutoSys 11.3.6 

Resolution

The forecast command is a FAT client/command, meaning it bypasses the as_server and connects directly to the database.  

The errors "wrong ELF class" are typically a result of trying to use a 32bit exe with 64bit libraries or vice versa, 64bit exe with 32bit libraries.  

Please run "file" against the library in your error message
Example: file /kerberos/PROJ/mitkrb5/1.16-lib-prod/lib/libgssapi_krb5.so
Confirm its bit level and confirm the version of the Sybase client and server involved along with the AutoSys version and bit levels.

NOTE - AutoSys 12.0 is 64bit, all lower versions are 32bit.
