[Valgrind-users] Intel (amd64) Solaris valgrind can't trace children

[Rob B. <ro...@da...>]

All,

I built valgrind 3.13.0 from source with prefix=/opt/valgrind-3.13 and installed there on a 64-bit Intel Solaris machine.
It seems to work well for the program passed on the command line, but tracing children doesn’t.
Whenever I pass –trace-children=yes  on the command line I get this message:

valgrind: failed to start tool 'memcheck' for platform 'x86-solaris': No such file or directory

I see files under the lib directory /opt/valgrind-3.12/lib/ that are labeled “amd64-solaris”

robb@solaris11-x64:~$ ls -l /opt/valgrind-3.13/lib/valgrind/ | grep solaris

<SNIP>

but nothing ‘x86-solaris’  - perhaps that’s the issue?

Thanks,
