Error Message

Error: Error relocating vec0.so: __memcpy_chk: symbol not found

Root Cause

Vector search via sqlite-vec fails on musl-based systems (e.g. OpenWrt, iStoreOS) because the binary is compiled against glibc and references symbols like __memcpy_chk that do not exist in musl libc.

Bug description

Vector search via sqlite-vec fails on musl-based systems (e.g. OpenWrt, iStoreOS) because the binary is compiled against glibc and references symbols like __memcpy_chk that do not exist in musl libc.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Run OpenClaw on a musl-based system
  2. Run openclaw memory status --deep
  3. Vector store status: unavailable

Error: Error relocating vec0.so: __memcpy_chk: symbol not found

Expected behavior

A musl-compatible sqlite-vec binary (e.g. sqlite-vec-linux-x64-musl).

Environment

  • OpenClaw version: 2026.5.26
  • OS: iStoreOS (OpenWrt-based, musl libc 1.2.5)
  • sqlite-vec binary: sqlite-vec-linux-x64/vec0.so
