Play Framework and JNotify

When starting a play framework application I get this notice:

Cannot load the JNotify native library (/home/myapplication/target/native_libraries/32bits/libjnotify.so: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.12' not found (required by /home/myapplication/target/native_libraries/32bits/libjnotify.so))
Play will check file changes for each request, so expect degraded reloading performace.

I'm not able to update this server. How much "degraded reloading performace" there will be? How worried should I be :-) ?

Solution

  • This could be several things, either the wrong shared object is loaded (are you really on a 32bit system?) or you just need to compile JNotify yourself on your system because the that is compiled for you does not match the version of glibc.
