When invoking lmutil or lmgrd an error "no such file or directory" is returned.

Investigation yields that lmutil is using the following interpreter: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-lsb-x86-64.so.3, for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, stripped.

What can I do?

After contacting Safe Support with this issue, a very knowledgeable and helpful FME User identified that ld-lsb-x86-64.so.3 doesn't exist on a standard Debian installation.

The resolution was to create a link: 

 

ln -s /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 /lib64/ld-lsb-x86-64.so.3

The following systemd unit file might also be particularly helpful:
