hey, you need the packages needed for building installed, as it is complaining about g lib c. For openSUSE, according to a quick google devel_basis and openssl-devel are the packages you need

There's no such packages for OpenSUSE. Yes I do have libopenssl-devel package. This error is due to fact that app is compiled for too new glibc version. The highest available glibc version on OpenSUSE 15.1 is 2.26 yet your app requires 2.28 which is unrealistically high requirement for anything other than rolling distro. In fact even OpenSUSE Tumbleweed which is rolling distribution only has 2.26 in repo available as of now. CentOS 7 for example supports only up to 2.17. Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (which ends support in 2023) has 2.27. OpenSUSE 15.2 which is currently most recent OpenSUSE still uses 2.26

[wrac4242]

can you try to run from source then, as it may be just that dependency that is out of date

We do not aim to support every linux distro as especially in the Linux world system details and libraries versions vary a lot as I'm sure you know. That said, we do have CI builds on libc 2.27, you can download artifacts here: https://github.com/GitSquared/edex-ui/suites/1748097370/artifacts/33217538
