Description

Resolution:
In GridServer 4.2, you can run Engines as a 32-bit process in a 64-bit OS (Linux) by adding a new environment variable in engine.sh and configure.sh.

The environment variable to be added is DS_TARGET_PLATFORM. Before launching the configure.sh or engine.sh, set the variable to the desired platform.

For example, if a 32-bit version Engine should be run on x86_64 linux platform, set the variable to i386 before running the configure.sh; the 32-bit Engine library and the 32-bit JRE will be downloaded. Likewise, a 32-bit Engine will be launched when engine.sh is run.

If the variable is not set, the type of Engine launched is based on the automatically detected environment.

If configure.sh has been run prior to adding the environment variable, the lib and jre directories must be removed and configure.sh run again after setting the environment variable.
