[opensuse-programming] shared libraries not found.
Hello, I compiled some servers today. Everything worked fine until I wanted to start them. Everytime when shared libraries should be loaded there was an error message saying "somelib.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" I get that problem everytime when the share library is located in /usr/local/lib. This directory is listed in /etc/ld.so.conf. Even after calling SuSEconfig there was no improvement. Does someone of you know the cause? Help is appreciated.

You'll have to be give more details! Which platform (x86 or x86-64 aka x64)? If x64, are the apps compiled as 32bit or 64 bit apps?

Somehow everythings works fine today. This has MOST LIKELY to do with a reboot. Actually I would prefer to understand why! Thanks for helping. Regards, Oliver Am Mittwoch, 9. Mai 2007 04:03 schrieb Philipp Thomas:

When this happens to me I use the "old-fashioned" ldconfig command: /sbin/ldconfig -p | grep libname (this can be done as a user) to check the ld cache has the correct entry. If the library is not found then I run "ldconfig -a" as root. If that doesn't work I would try ldd as someone else suggested. That this is fixed after reboot suggests that SuSEconfig was not running ldconfig, which is run at reboot, and so was not updating the cache. When I manually move or install things I always use ldconfig. I find SuSEconfig is designed to work with rpms and suse tools and not for manually installed software. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-programming+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-programming+help@opensuse.org

Help is appreciated.
Can you post the output of ldd yourprogramnamehere ? Did you just build/move the libraries into /usr/local/lib? Are they the same architecture of the server programs? Can you show the output of ls -l for the library files that are not loading from /usr/local/lib ? Thanks.
