Re: LD_LIBRARY_PATH exported but libdb-4.6.so not found

You should embed the correct path by adding -R/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.6/lib to your LDFLAGS at compile time, or set LD_RUN_PATH before compiling, which works similarly. It is unwise to leave location of BDB libraries to chance, as if you are relying on OS provided default libraries, they will frequently be wrong or will cause issues, or your newer libraries may not be found. Linux usually only puts /usr/local/lib and other system paths such as /usr/lib etc., in the default library path. This is not a workaround, it is just the way it works. You must make sure you provide the same libraries you compiled with, otherwise openldap may fail as it will not find libraries, or default to some system libraries which can be broken or old. The -R option stores the library location in the executables, at runtime it will look first in this location, before it falls back to using LD_LIBRARY_PATH etc., Cheers Brett On Tue, Oct 25, 2011 at 2:04 AM, Pablo Chamorro C. < pchamorro(a)ingeominas.gov.co&gt; wrote: -- *The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education.* * Albert Einstein*
