Error during installation of Flexera MD Agent (libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2.5)(64bit) is needed by managesoft-17.0.1-1.x86_64)

While trying to install the Flexera MD Agent on an Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS machine.

Hi Sandrobl, thanks for reaching out on the Community!

I believe we advise using the .deb installation media for Ubuntu, discussed here:
https://docs.flexera.com/fnms/EN/GatherFNInv/index.html#SysRef/FlexNetInventoryAgent/tasks/FA3-InstallUNIX.html

You should be able to access the .deb file necessary for download in the sub-folders of your Beacon's 
C:\ProgramData\Flexera Software\Staging\Common\Packages\Flexera\Adoption

folder. 
If you try the install with the .deb file, do you see the same error thrown? 

Best regards,
Jack

Hello, 
sadly I don't have access to the sub-folder of my Beacon. I had to request the installation files separately... So I couldn't try out the .deb file.

You should be able to add the missing GNU C libraries to your Ubuntu 20.04 system using apt, apt-get or aptitude.

I added the librarie

glibc-source/focal-updates,focal-security,now 2.31-0ubuntu9.7 all [installed]

but sadly the same error is being given when the installation is tried.
