Runing RNAseqViewer in Linux Ubuntu with error message for shared libraries.

Question

I have downloaded it as the manual mentioned and when I type the following command: ./RNAseqViewer The error is below ./RNAseqViewer: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.0.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I also tried in Debian Unix ./RNAseqViewer: error while loading shared libraries: libz.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Same error. Could you tell me what is the problem for the shared libraries libz.so.1?

Regards.

Answer 1

You are missing some libraries. In Ubuntu and Debian simply use the following command:

sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0:amd64  

and the next one for the other library:

sudo apt-get install zlib1g

If you encounter issues with dependency, try this:

sudo apt-get install zlib1g:i386

Sometimes you might get an error with sudo missing. Simply type apt-get install sudo then login as root and type nano /etc/sudoers. Navigate to where the users are listed and add your username in this form (under root): USERNAME ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL then issue the commands above. It should work this way.

I have followed the above answers and installed the new version of libssl1.0.0, the error message still exists.
#sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0:amd64

libssl1.0.0 is already the newest version (1.0.2g-1ubuntu4.8).

zlib1g:i386 is already the newest version (1:1.2.8.dfsg-2ubuntu4.1).
#./RNAseqViewer

Use this to link the file, because for some reason the software doesn't detect it:

    sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0 libssl-dev

then the next commands:
    cd /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
    sudo ln -s libssl.so.1.0.0 libssl.so.10

I am really frustrated for the libssl.so.1.0.0. Following the above solutions. I got the following error.

./RNAseqViewer: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.0.0: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
