Hi all,

Let me know how can i resolve this mistake.
Thank.

Hi Chris,

looks like you don't have the needed 32bit-libraries installed (libpam.so.0 may be in /lib64 but no 32bit-version in /lib or wherever the libraries are on your system)
On x64-systems the 32bit-versions usually don't get installed by default, so you have to install them manually.
As far as I know you need at least
- pam.i386
- libselinux.i386
- libsepol.i386
