ldd can't find library in LD_LIBRARY_PATH
ldd, shared-libraries, unix
Solution
The binaries I had were looking for the 32-bit versions of the shared libraries, I had the 64-bit installed. Stupid mistake. LDD didn't produce a very insightful error message, but the binary did when I tried to run it.
Problem
I'm trying to get a system up and running, and am having problems with the OpenMotif shared libraries. I have their directory in LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but it still can't find them. Here's an example: ``` [root@intrepid netcool]# ldd /opt/netcool/omnibus/platform/linux2x86/bin/nco_* |grep 'not found' libXm.so.3 => not found libXpm.so.4 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found libXpm.so.4 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found [root@intrepid netcool]# find /usr/ -name libXm.so.3 /usr/lib64/libXm.so.3 [root@intrepid netcool]# find /usr/ -name libXpm.so.4 /usr/lib64/libXpm.so.4 [root@intrepid netcool]# echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH /opt/netcool/omnibus//platform/linux2x86/lib/:/opt/netcool//platform/linux2x86/lib/:/usr/lib/:/usr/lib64/ ``` I'm probably doing something stupid, but I can't think of anything else to try. EDIT: To answer a couple of the questions asked below: ``` [root@intrepid netcool]# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH [root@intrepid netcool]# ldd /opt/netcool/omnibus/platform/linux2x86/bin/nco_* |grep 'not found' libXm.so.3 => not found libXpm.so.4 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found libXpm.so.4 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found [root@intrepid netcool]# ldconfig [root@intrepid netcool]# ldd /opt/netcool/omnibus/platform/linux2x86/bin/nco_* |grep 'not found' libXm.so.3 => not found libXpm.so.4 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found libXpm.so.4 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found libXm.so.3 => not found ``` Ok, just tried to run one of the executables: ``` # ./bin/nco_xigen /opt/netcool//omnibus/platform/linux2x86/bin/nco_xigen: error while loading shared libraries: libXm.so.3: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64 ``` Is this a 32 bit/64 bit thing?
