Description:
on Solaris 10, using mysqlmonitoragent-2.1.0.1093-solaris10-sparc-64bit-installer.bin , the setup window has:

Please wait while Setup installs MYSQL Enterprise Monitor Agent on your computer.
Installing
Creating link /opt/my[...]erprise/agent/lib/mysql-proxy/libreplicant.so

A warning dialog box pops up:
Problem running post-install step.
Installation may not complete correctly
Error running /opt/mysql/enterprise/agent/bin/mysql-monitor-agent
--defaults-file=/opt/mysql/enterprise/agent/etc/mysql-monitor-agent.ini
--plugins=agent
--agent-generate-uuid=true : ld.so.1:
mysql-proxy: fatal: libmysql-chassis.so.0: open failed: No
such file or directory
Killed

The file is there in the /opt/mysql/enterprise/agent/lib/mysql-proxy directory

How to repeat:
Unsure

Suggested fix:
o Set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64 environment variable correctly / Sym link the libraries in agent/lib/mysql-proxy to /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib

(Workaround:) 

Customer had to:
1. Use root
2. Use a bash shell
3. Explicitly set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64 environment variable before starting

addendum: please add the -e flag to the list of flags for truss, we could then prove whether LD_LIBRARY_PATH_* is set.

A note has been added to the 2.1.1 changelog: 

 The agent installer for Solaris on x64 would fail due to a library linker issue duing the post-installation phase of the installer.

Solution implemented:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64 is unset in mysql-monitor-agent (affects this script only). Hereby the LD_LIBRARY_PATH we set will take effect.
