We have a really strange issue with DNS on our EC2 instances. An application we’re running on some of our instances is Java-based service that provides a back-end for an Android application. As part of it’s functionality, it sends push notifications to phones through a Google API. To do this, it has to make an SSL request to android.apis.google.com. Unfortunately, when running this on our EC2 instances, we get a certificate error because the hostname [...]

# /opt/dev/android-sdk/platforms/android-1.5/tools/aapt /opt/dev/android-sdk/platforms/android-1.5/tools/aapt: error while loading shared libraries: libz.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory On an i386 box this aapt launches, but not on amd64. /lib/libz.so.1 is there in both cases.
