Info:
Hy , please have patience , I dont know if I posted where I should , I did not sleep for 3 days trying to solve this issue....I tryed everithing i could find on google , i dont know what am I missing.
-Specs :VPS single core , 3gb ram , 75gb ssd , Centos6.10-x86_64
-Reason for centos6 : my forum was made in 2011 and works only with php 5.6 , upgrading to centos 7 out of question.

Problem:
-CS 1.6 and CSGO both installed through LGSM both working but...every time I stop start restart i get this errors and it makes me think that some plugins aren't working because of that , like for example something simple like dproto is just failing to load.
as you can see python 3 is installed and running and glibc 2.17 available but i dont know how to show the program to use it....
I want to mention that I have no knowledge of linux since a week ago when i bought this vps and got everithing installed and running through trial and error with help of allot of tutorials.
Basically I have no more energy to do this and as a last resort im asking for help.
Thanks in advance!
errors---->
cs restart
python and glibc

-Reason for centos6 : my forum was made in 2011 and works only with php 5.6 , upgrading to centos 7 out of question.

Well not a reason to me 🤔
CentOS 7 has php5.4 as default in the repos (and remi php56 is also there for centos 7).
Only if you use other repos, that upgarde php, are the problem.

I guess you only dont want to upgrade your server.

as you can see python 3 is installed and running and glibc 2.17 available but i dont know how to show the program to use it....

wel for a cs 1.6 server you need to upgrade the i686 version of glibc then and not the x64_86 version of the lib.

Thank you for your answer , I had centos 7 on my vps and the forum just gave 500 errors , that fixed with the downgrade to centos 6.
Can you please tell me how to upgrade to i686 ? and what about python ?
thank you

The x32 bit glibc is there only with version 2.12 installed, so you need to upgarde it.
However you did this with the 64 bit version.

this could help (Not Tested):
https://gist.github.com/harv/f86690fcad94f655906ee9e37c85b174
That references this repo:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/mosquito/myrepo-el6/
if you only add the repo and updte it could work.

Fyi: CentOS 6 will be only support till November this year so upgrading might be still something to be considerd

Gist
update glibc to 2.17 for CentOS 6. GitHub Gist: instantly share code, notes, and snippets.

Edit: there are the x32 bti and 64 bit versions in the repo.

Upgrading glibc can be risky. I wouldnt do it on a production server

If you can't upgrade your server I would get a vps specifics for your game server

well, you need to install the "normal" build rpm and not the source rpm.
with the "src.rpm" you would need to build it yourself.

The easiest would be to add the repo i mentioned and just update the components via yum

can you tell me how to solve this ? missing dependencies util-linux python3 nmap-ncat

sry - no i do not have an idea to to solve the other things.
The server could start now, but be aware that lgsm might not support centos 6 to long.

So for anyone having this problem this is what you need to do :

-first verify what glibc version you have :

ldd --version

-if you have .i686 then go here https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/mosquito/myrepo-el6/epel-6-i386/glibc-2.17-55.fc20/

-if you have x86_64 go here https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/mosquito/myrepo-el6/epel-6-x86_64/glibc-2.17-55.fc20/

-Now just right click and copy the first link adress then enter putty with root and follow example , in my case i686:

wget https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/mosquito/myrepo-el6/epel-6-i386/glibc-2.17-55.fc20/glibc-2.17-55.el6.i686.rpm
-then install it with :

sudo rpm -Uvh glibc-2.17-55.el6.i686.rpm \--force --nodeps
-Do this 2 steps for every link separately then u can verify again your glibc version

ldd --version and it should look like this:
ldd (GNU libc) 2.17
then you can restart your server and the glibc error should be gone.

Thanks h3o66 I couldn't do this without him
Also can you please write the name of the topic as "glib requirements not met error" so that it would be easier to find for those who have this problem.
