In the distributions mentioned above libstdc++.so.5 is not an independent rpm anymore but is a part of compat-libstdc++.rpm. Depending upon distribution and architecture the complete file name is
compat-libstdc++-5.0.7-121.1.i586.rpm
compat-libstdc++-5.0.7-121.1.x86_64.rpm
or similar. Installing the appropriate RPM for the architecture will allow the GroupWise Installer to run.
In some instances, the 64-bit version of the libstdc++.so.5 libraries are installed on the SLES 10 server, but because GroupWise is a 32-bit application, you need to install the 32-bit version of that library. To do that, open YaST and go to Software Management, then use the Search function to search for "libstdc++" and check the box for libstdc++33-32bit and click "Accept", which should install the necessary library. After that installation completes, the GroupWise installer should run successfully.
