Netbeans EXE not working when executed from Terminal - CentOs

I made Netbeans work environment with SASL. The sample codes get build and it also run properly from Netbeans. But when I try to run my exe from Terminal it is not working. The error says as below:

./cppapplication_1: error while loading shared libraries: libanonymous.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I tried setting the PATH using the below Command :

export PATH=/usr/lib64/sasl2/:$PATH

Still I am getting the same error. Do I need anything extra to do?

Solution

  • You need to add the path to libanonymous to the enviroment variable LD_LOAD_LIBRARY.

    Update:

    To do so:

    1. Locate the library, for example doing: find / -name "libanonymous.so.2" or by locate libanonymous.so.2
    2. Add the path found like so: export LD_LOAD_LIBRARY=$LD_LOAD_LIBRARY:<path to lib>

    Update 1:

    From your comment to Anon's answer I see that the lib in question is located under /usr/lib64/sasl2/.

    So you might like to set LD_LOAD_LIBRAY path like so:

    export LD_LOAD_LIBRARY=$LD_LOAD_LIBRARY:/usr/lib64/sasl2/

    Update 2

    This needs to be done in the same shell that later then executes the program needing the libraries (cppapplication_1).

    cd <dir for cppapplication_1>; export LD_LOAD_LIBRARY=$LD_LOAD_LIBRARY:/usr/lib64/sasl2/; ./cppapplication_1
