AIX7-00-003129 - The local initialization file library search paths must contain only absolute paths on AIX.

Information

The library search path environment variable(s) contain a list of directories for the dynamic linker to search to find libraries. If this path includes the current working directory or other relative paths, libraries in these directories may be loaded instead of system libraries. This variable is formatted as a colon-separated list of directories. If there is an empty entry, such as a leading or trailing colon, or two consecutive colons, this is interpreted as the current working directory.

Solution

Edit the local initialization file(s) and remove the relative path entry from the library search path.
