Hi every body! I finnally got my problem solved thanks to stata support! so
for every body who wrote me telling me that they had the same proble this is
it, if you have a newer Linux version: StataCorp produces two compile
versions of Stata, one with statically linked libraries (for older Linux
versions) and one with dynamic. The one I bought was static and didn't work
with my Linux. So Stata support kindly helped me out with that, the
instructions are:
1) Figure out if you have the version that works with static or a dynamic
libraries by typing
$ ldd <filename> for example $ ldd /usr/local/stata/xstata
If the promt says: "$ not a dynamic executable" your version works with
static libraries, if it works with dynamic you will get a few lines output,
listing the libs
2)you can obtain other compiles from
http://www.stata.com/support/updates/stata7/unix/
There you should find the compile with the dynamic libraries
So good luck!
Petra
