Re: [ferret_users] Installing ferret 7.4 - completing the instalation with Finstall Step

Use locate command like below, it will list available .so file, and then create symbolic link either in /lib/ or /lib64 directory

For example,

# locate libreadline.so
/usr/lib64/libreadline.so

Syntax : ln -s [file] [soft-link-to-file]

Here I create symbolic link with the name which ferret is looking for

# ln -s /usr/lib64/libreadline.so /lib64/libreadline.so.6

Dear Akshay

Thanks for help, it works and completed Finstall's steps. But after that I can't still run ferret. The terminal shows problem below:

root@raden-K42F: error while loading shared libraries: libreadline.so.6:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory -> but it was solved after i installing libreadline.so.6)

I use Ubuntu 17.10 64bit. I say apologize because i don't have much exprience in OS Linux.
I really appreciate for any suggestion and help.

Thank You

Best Regards
