Resolution
On page 18 of the RSA Authentication Agent 8.0 for Web for Apache Web Server Installation and Configuration Guide, step 11 states that a Linux environment variable must be set called LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
- Check the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable has been set up correctly so the Apache 2.x web server can locate the library libxerces-c-3.1.so.
The library libxerces-c-3.1.so resides in the <APACHE_HOME>/rsawebagent folder.
- Restart the Apache 2.x web server and review the Apache error log for further messages.
