This might be related to LD_POINTER_GUARD variable. check out the link
on Michael's site.

There have been several threads on the same topic in group
sybase.public.ase.linux which you might want to check..

Thanks for the reply.

I tried setting/unsetting the $LG_POINTER_GUARD variable but with no
success. Is there anything that I have missed and should try? Or is
this a bug in ASE on Linux? I am a newbie to Sybase, so I might have
missed some obvious point. So, please suggest.

Thanks,
Pradeep

The problem got solved. I checked a thread in the ase.linux group and
I installed EBF15962 and that resolved the issue. Thanks for the
response.
