Program doesn´t find existing libraries

reis — Tue, 19 Jul 2005 06:27:36 GMT

Hi,
we got a new version of a program (animator) and we can´t start it, because the program doesn´t find an existing library (libjpeg.sl).
I checked SHLIB_PATH, /usr/local/lib is set.
I checked the executable with chatr and ldd and here is the problem: ldd searches in the right place (/usr/local/lib), but doesn´t find the library. I installed the patch PHSS_30965, but nothing changed. How can I solve this problem ?
Here is the printout of ldd at the "missing" library:

Does your LD_LIBRARY_PATH has that directory.

You say you have *a* libjpeg.sl, but is it of a matching architecture?

I bet that animator is a 64bit applic, and your libjpeg.sl is 32 bit or the other way around

use

# file animator
# file libjpeg.sl

to see if I'm correct.

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

Hi,

as the application itselfe has a 64 in the filename i assume its an 64Bit application. So i think the version of the library you have is a 32Bit version.

Try to get a 64Bit version of this library and install it to a path like /usr/lib/pa20_64 to keep all 64Bit libraries together.

You might want to check your library with

# file libjpeg.sl

to check wether or not its a 32Bit version.

Hope this helps

Regards Stefan

Hi,
thanks to all, youÂ´re right. animator is a 64-bit version (a3_m_hp_64: ELF-64 executable object file - PA-RISC 2.0 (LP64)
) and the library is a 32-bit version (libjpeg.sl: PA-RISC1.1 shared library
). I downloaded the library from http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux/X11/Graphics/jpeg-6b/, (64-bit version), but I got the same effect.
