Installed through repository but not working?

Post by kirky_D »

Code: Select all

kirky@ubuntu:~$ tmw
tmw: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.0.9.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
kirky@ubuntu:~$
That's the error i get while trying to run The Mana World. I have had it installed on here before but had to reformat and now i cant gte it working again. I have tried installing libssl 0.9.8 with -shared as a config option to create shared libraries (i probably have that wrong)

I am using Ubuntu Breezy version.

Any one have any ideas as to what to do?

Cheers

Ubuntu Vs. Debian...

A way to get rid of that problem
is to create a symbolic link leading to your existing libssl.so file.
The same is to be done to the libcrypto.so.

Ex :
ln -s libssl.so.0.9.8 libssl.so.<Ubuntu-Version>
in the folder of libs. (/usr/lib, I think.)

Anyway, something more precise will be added into the FAQ about it.
I would also add that Ubuntu isn't 100 % compatible with Debian, and to avoid problems, we'll put efforts in making a Ubuntu repository.

Thanks for reading,
