Library missing for executable file

rated 0 times [ 7] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 12931 / 3 Years ago, thu, august 19, 2021, 12:38:03

There's an executable I downloaded onto my Ubuntu 10.04 and I can't run because it's missing a library. I have also tried compiling the source with CMake. This is my Terminal output:

zack@zack-laptop:~/Desktop$ ./MultiMC

./MultiMC: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.0.0:

cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I think I need libssl 1.0 to run this file, but I'm not sure. Any help?

@Jim Salter: The output of lsb_release -d ; apt-file update ; apt-file search libssl.so.1.0.0 is:

Description:    Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS

apt-file is now using the user's cache directory.

If you want to switch back to the system-wide cache directory,

 run 'apt-file purge'

you@box:~$ locate libssl.so.1.0.0

On my machine, this returns /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.0.0 and /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.0.0. So. This thing you're trying to run - is it 32-bit code, or 64-bit code? Assuming it's the former:

you@box:~/Desktop$ mkdir ~/MultiMC

you@box:~/Desktop$ mv MultiMC ~/MultiMC

you@box:~/Desktop$ cd ~/MultiMC

you@box:~/MultiMC$ ln -s /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.0.0 ./

you@box:~/MultiMC$ ./MultiMC

And Bob should be your uncle. (The problem is that your "MultiMC" doesn't know where to look for the library, even though it's actually present on your system. In theory, if you have access to the source code - or if this is just a script to begin with - you could also just edit the application itself to look for the library in the right place.)

What if you DON'T have libssl.so.1.0.0 in the first place? Well, in this case you almost certainly do. But maybe there'll be ANOTHER library it needs and can't find after you satisfy this one, and you turn out not to already have that one...

you@box:~/MultiMC$ sudo apt-get install apt-file

you@box:~/MultiMC$ sudo apt-file update

you@box:~/MultiMC$ sudo apt-file search libssl.so.1.0.0

And you can then install whatever package contains the library you need. Always check first to see if you already have the library and just don't know where to find it, though! =)
