Smile How to find and install the libraries required by SlimerJS?


Hi. I'm using SlimerJS on a production machine to do the dynamic webpage screen capture. I've read the installation on its website, which says it requires these libraries:

Quote:
libpthread.so, libdl.so, libstdc++.so, libm.so, libgcc_s.so, libc.so, ld-linux-x86-64.so, libXrender1.so, libasound.so.2, libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.
Also it points out that on Ubuntu/Debian, you can install/verify it by doing:

Quote:
sudo apt-get install libc6 libstdc++6 libgcc1 libgtk2.0-0 libasound2 libxrender1
However I'm on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server, I have the yum-install command. Currently I can run SlimerJS without any errors. But it doesn't give me the output, either. I guess I may have missing libraries.

I don't use Linux that much. Could someone tell me how do I check or install the libraries I mentioned above?

If the required libraries are not available in the Red Hat repositories, you can try using a third party repository.

Keep in mind, though, that Third party repositories are not maintained by Red Hat and problems you may have with them will not be covered by any support contract you may have with Red Hat.

If you're not paying for the support services that Red Hat offers you should consider switching to one of the alternative distros.

See the EPEL page on the Fedora Project wiki.

#1.

All the prerequisites for SlimerJS are probably already installed.
If not : They are all present in the "Main Redhat repo".
`libc6' : Is glibc. Glibc is your OS (together with the kernel)
... and is never missing on any OS.
`libstdc++6' : Package name = libstdc++
`libgcc1' : libgcc is also always installed, on any Linux OS.
`libgtk2.0-0' : gtk2
`libasound2 : alsa-lib
`libxrender1 : libXrender

Thank you for the list @knudfl
I've checked just now and all the libraries are already installed on that machine.
It's weird that when I run slimerjs command with a script file which captures a webpage, no output is written on the disk.
I've also tried the xvfb-run and nothing happens.
The same script works on my Mac.
Well, I guess this should be another question. Now I know it's not about the required libraries.
Thanks again.
