Upgrade Fedora 11 to Fedora 12 – kstartupconfig4 does not exist or fails.

01-22-10

After ‘successfully’ upgrading from Fedora 11 to Fedora 12 (64bit) on my laptop KDE4 failed to start with error: Kstartupconfig4 does not exist or fails. The error code is 127.

Gnome still worked but KDE and KDE apps failed to load. Trying to run dolphin in terminal produced libssl.so.8 & libcrypto.so.8 shared library missing errors.

The resolution is put in the symbolic links that are missing

cd /usr/lib64 (64bit) and /usr/lib (32bit)
ln -s libssl.so.1.0.0 libssl.so.8
ln -s libcrypto.so.1.0.0 libcrypto.so.8

and reboot

    It solved a Yum problem I had, but I still have issues with sudo

    [Nessus@l038nessus01 ~]$ sudo yum update
    sudo: error while loading shared libraries: libaudit.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

    Sounds like a similar issue of some sym links missing in your /usr/lib64 (64bit) and /usr/lib (32bit) directory?
    perhaps you could check for libaudit.so.* by doing a “ls libaudit.*” seeing what is there and linking to it like:
    ln -s libaudit.so.WHATEVERGOTRETURNED libaudit.so.0

    Good luck
