libmowgli not found
 

Hi,
I was installing libmcs after installing libmowgli on my fedora 6 linux pc.
I got the error::libmowgli not found....
Plz tell me how to resolve it.
what environment variable should i overload???


Thanks in advance..

How about using yum?

How did you install libmowgli in your system ? by using a tar file or by a rpm package ?
What is the path to libmowgli.so file ? (find / -type f -iname "libmowgli*" )

If it was installed in a standard place (/lib or /usr/lib ) it should be "seen" by ldconfig. Try "ldconfig -p | grep -i mowgli" to check if ldconfig already have this library in the cache.

Otherwise, add the installation path (e.g. /usr/local/lib/mogwgli or whatever) to /etc/ld.so.conf (or even better, to /etc/ld.so.conf.d/mowgli.conf if your system scans /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf - check your system)
and re-run ldconf (without arguments) and "ldconfig -p | grep -i mowgli" again.

The other way is to add the installation path to LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable just to this application, not system wide.

Thanks for such a descriptive reply sir.I ll try doing so..
Thank you once again...
