I am trying to install sensu-client on Ubuntu 16.04 node and after installation I am unable to start the service. Below is the error I am getting while trying to start the service.

 sensu-service[4885]: /opt/sensu/embedded/bin/ruby: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.25' not found (required by /opt/sensu/embedded/lib/libruby.so.2.4)

My sensu version is 1.9.0-2

I have verified that libc6 is already installed in my node

$sudo dpkg -l | grep libc6
ii  libc6:amd64                      2.23-0ubuntu11.3                           amd64        GNU C Library: Shared libraries
ii  libc6-dev:amd64                  2.23-0ubuntu11.3                           amd64        GNU C Library: Development Libraries and Header Files

Is there a way I can make them work with current os version?

Ubuntu 16.04 is the LTSC version but right now, it is only receiving security updates so the version of libc6 isn't going to be updated and normally isn't anyway.

Sensu 1.# has been EOL since December 31st 2019 and has been superseded by Sensu Go as stated here: https://www.rubydoc.info/gems/sensu/1.9.0

You could try an older version of it that's compatible with the version of libc6 that you have but I'd recommend against that because it's no longer supported.

The best option in your case is to install Sensu Go on a system that has Ubuntu 18.04 or 20.04 which have, respectively, libc6 versions 2.27 and 2.31. The Sensu that you have would install and run on a later release of Ubuntu but again, it's no longer supported.
