How to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH on Jenkins

Question

I am having java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError problem while running a job from Jenkins. ``` java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no JSTAF in java.library.path at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(ClassLoader.java:1681) at java.lang.Runtime.loadLibrary0(Runtime.java:840) at java.lang.System.loadLibrary(System.java:1047) ``` Basically I need to set `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` and when this is set, it works fine from command line execution. For example, when I set `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` like following: ``` export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH ``` Upon setting, the code execution works fine from command line. I have tried to set this `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` using the `EnvInjectPlugin` and injected the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`. Still I am not sure why Jenkins is not picking up this `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`. How to set this up so that Jenkins job execution will work?

Accepted Answer

I posted an answer to a similar question yesterday here: KDevelop4: Error while loading shared libraries

In practice, LD_LIBRARY_PATH is deprecated in many Linux OS. Use config files in /etc/ld.so.conf.d for that and run `ldconfig` before starting Jenkins. (see the above cited post)

EDIT [solution]:

after having discussed it in chat, the problem has been solved by adding :

```
#!/bin/bash
export LD_LYBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:<myPathForJenkins>
```

in a short script in /etc/profile.d/ and setting it executable with `chmod +x`
