Re: [Xen-users] shared lib path errors

xl tools require privileged access, so you'll want to sudo your calls to xl.

It might be worth your time to carefully modify your /etc/sudoers file to permitÂprivileged calls to xl without a password if you actively administrate with it.

Thanks David. That fix all my ".so not found" issues. I have now encountered a new error (see below). I'm new to the mailing lists so please let me know if I should start a different thread. I didn't spot this libxc error in the archives:

# xl list
xc: error: Could not obtain handle on privileged command interface (2 = No such file or directory): Internal error
libxl: error: libxl.c:109:libxl_ctx_alloc: cannot open libxc handle: No such file or directory
cannot init xl context

Thanks

Hi,

As part of a dev activity, I built Xen 4.5.0 from source and installed it successfully on my Ubuntu 14.04 server, However I am getting this error when running "xl list":

xl: error while loading shared libraries: libxlutil.so.4.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Based on some archived threads, I verified the following.
--> This soft link & file exist in /usr/local/lib: libxlutil.so.4.3 -> libxlutil.so.4.3.0
--> /etc/ld.so.conf has this line: "include /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf"
--> /etc/ld.so.conf.d/libc.conf has this content:
line 1: # libc default configuration
line 2: /usr/local/lib

Based on archived threads, xl should be searching /usr/local/lib based on the above. But it is obviously not. Meanwhile I tried linking the /usr/local/lib copy to /usr/lib. That worked (but now it's complaining similarly about not finding libxenlight). Not sure it matters but one final detail: echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH from my shell shows nothing.

Are there any solutions recommended other than putting soft links in /usr/lib?

Thanks,
Wayne

I don't know if this is the best solution, but in the past when I've encountered this error I used ldconfig and pointed to the location where my Xen libraries were installed (and then reboot). So for you, probably:

ldconfig /usr/local/lib
