Problem

When running cmk-update-agent on a Linux host, you might encounter the following error message:

cmk-update-agent: error while loading shared libraries: libz.so.1: failed to map segment from shared object

Solution

Remount the volume /tmp on your host. The command to do so, could look like this:

root@myhost:~# mount /tmp -o remount,exec

Depending on the Linux you are using and the actual path of your /tmp volume, you might have to alter the command above.
