If you have a version of Mathematica with 64 bit in the version string, such as mine, "5.2 for Linux x86 (64 bit (June 20, 2005)" please locate any XML file on your system and try to import it using the Mathematica Import command (here's my try): In[1]:= a=Import["/var/www/test.chris/website-build.xml"] /usr/local/Wolfram/Mathematica/5.2/SystemFiles/Converters/Binaries/Linux-x86-64/XML.exe: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory LinkOpen::linke: MathLink error: the launch failed because the program could not be found In[2]:= Will you please post the output? If you don't get my error, could you please see if you have the 32-bit version of that library, libstdc++.so.5? By the way, it *may be important* to run the front end/console on a 64 bit machine, instead of running, say, the front end on 32 bit windows and the kernel on the 64 bit machine.
