[GRASS-user] Library problem

GRASS GRASS user

I've just downloaded the current Grass 6.2 (compiler produces grass63 as the
executable). I also have updated GDAL and PROJ. Grass configures without
problems and compiles with a single warning of an error in .../proj. I'm
running SuSE 10.1 on an intel based system with a GB of RAM.

Running grass63 resuls in the following message when starting:

"g.region: error while loading shared libraries: libgdal.so.1: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory"

libgdal.so.1 exists as an alias for libgdal.so.1.10.0 in /usr/local/lib, so
evidently g.region is looking in the wrong.

I'ld to know how to fix this.

Thanks,
JWDougherty

Hi,

You can try to add the path of gdal to /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig after
in root.

Hi,

You can try to add the path of gdal to /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig
after in root.

Yves,

Thanks for the ideas. The path was already in /etc/ld.so.con. The cure was
running ldconfig. Thank you again.
