I'm using Django 3.2 on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. I'm running a docker container with a django-rest-api web server with python 3.8.14.I'm getting an error with regards to the GDAL library when i run docker-compose and fire up the container.
OSError: /usr/lib/libgdal.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
My django settings.py has :
GDAL_LIBRARY_PATH = "/usr/lib/libgdal.so"
Upon checking the gdal library version :
gdal-config --version
3.4.1
With regards to above, i installed pip3 gdal == 3.4.1

I can't seem to solve this problem and spent too much time on it. I was previously on Ubuntu 18.04 and switched to 22.04 to upgrade the libgdal library to see if upgrading version works that is done using :
sudo apt-get install libgdal-dev
gdal config --version on 18.04 was 2.4.2 which upgraded to 3.4.1 on Ubuntu 22.04
To check whether libgdal is installed :
ls -l /usr/lib/libgdal.so
Result : lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Mar 16 2022 /usr/lib/libgdal.so -> libgdal.so.30.0.1
I'm attaching my docker file :
FROM python:3.8.14
RUN apt-get -y update && apt-get -y upgrade && apt-get install -y ffmpeg
COPY wait-for-it.sh /wait-for-it.sh

CMD ["python", "manage.py", "runserver", "0.0.0.0:80"]
Help appreciated.
Thanks to @David for hinting in the right direction.
Had to add this to my dockerFile :
RUN apt-get -y install libgdal-dev
