Environment:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.5 Cluster Suite

EasyPay application

Resolution:

Customer needs to consult EasyPay about the syntax error within the custom user scripts.

Root Cause:

The EasyPay custom user script has a bug as its generating a syntax error when executed alone outside Red Hat Cluster Suite.

Diagnostic Steps:

Mounted the /dev/vgmyscript/data filesystem manually.  Then started the EasyPay /etc/init.d/myscript script manually.  It failed with syntax error within the easypay scripts.

Syntax error on line 233 of /usr/easypay-asp/algemeen/apaches/conf/httpd.conf: 
Cannot load /usr/easypay-asp/algemeen/apaches/modules/libmod_epupload.so into server: /usr/easypay-asp/algemeen/apaches/modules/libmod_epupload.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32
