When I do the install for FMS3, I get the following error message:

NPTL 2.3.4
Starting Adobe Flash Media Server (please check /var/log/messages)
Error: Flash Media Server needs the NSPR library installed.

There are no errors, either in the logs in /opt/adobe/fms/logs or in /var/log/messages and the mozilla-nspr libraries are installed:

[root@bbap2 FMS_3_0_1_r123]# up2date --dry-run mozilla-nspr

The following packages you requested are already updated:
mozilla-nspr

Now, I can see two things to try. I could install the seamonkey-nspr libraries, but I have no reason to think they'd be any better than the mozilla-nspr libraries, or I could install the nspr libraries, but they're marked BETA for RHEL 4.

I haven't yet tried running the server, and maybe everything is just fine, but I'd still like to hear other folks' experiences.

    Issue the command "ldd fmsmaster". It will show you want the binary is linked to.
