singularity : GLIBC_2.34 not found

Hi,

I have installed salome_meca 2021 container image using singularity on my arco-linux machine. So far it worked without any issue and I was able to use it. But now may be after an upgrade the salome_meca is unable to start. Here follows what happens and what I know about the issue :

1. When I run it in GPU mode, I get the GLIBC_2.34 error message

$./salome_meca-lgpl-2021.0.0-2-20211014-scibian-9
/usr/bin/nvidia-smi

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

2. When I run it in software rendering mode, it starts properly though rendering is not proper:

$./salome_meca-lgpl-2021.0.0-2-20211014-scibian-9 --soft

3. I can get into the container shell and inspect the environment:

Singularity> ldd --version
ldd (Debian GLIBC 2.24-11+deb9u4) 2.24

The container has GLIBC_2.24. My system has GLIBC_2.35. Not sure which GLIBC is causing this issue. It most likely appears to be from container but then not sure how it worked earlier.

singularity version is 3.9.0

I also checked the container image with Fedora 35 and Ubuntu 22.04 and they all give GLIBC_2.34 error whereas Ubuntu 18.04 works well. So is this an issue with GLIBC on host machine?

As far as I know, the newer GLIBC should have older GLIBC binaries.

Can someone point to a solution to this?

Re: singularity : GLIBC_2.34 not found

Hello, have you found a solution ?

I am experiencing the same issue.  (Glibc_ 2.34) Crashing in GPU, rendering problems in software rendering.
(For example, when it works, I cannot edit in text mode in the aster-study module. )

Re: singularity : GLIBC_2.34 not found

Hello, have you found a solution ?

Not yet! Forced to stick to Ubuntu 18.04 for now until this gets resolved. Although I have no idea how thats going to happen because I was using it without any issue until a few weeks ago.
