Missing shared object file?

[Guest Zurvan]

Hello,

 

I seem to have run into a road block in getting GemRB working on my Ubuntu 8.04 system. I followed the install instructions from the wiki, and got the code to compile. When an went to run the game, I got this:

:~$ gemrb
gemrb: error while loading shared libraries: libgemrb_core.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

 

I then did a grep for libgemrb_core.so.0 and found it here:

/usr/local/lib/libgemrb_core.so.0
/usr/local/lib/libgemrb_core.so.0.0.0

 

So my question is, what did I do wrong and why does gemrb not seem to find its own library?

Try setting PluginsPath in the config.

I had the same problem. Try:

$ sudo ldconfig

This will update the library cache. Note that the directory that holds the library (in your case, /usr/local/lib) must be configured in /etc/ld.so.conf (or /etc/ld.so.conf.d/).
