This is most probably a problem in the directory look-up for HDF5 shared library. Try with `ldd` tool to see if all the dependencies are seen. For example, in my case I get: $ ldd tables/linkExtension.so linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007f78007d5000) libhdf5.so.6 => /home/faltet/computacio/hdf5-1.8.4- pre1/hdf5/lib/libhdf5.so.6 (0x00007f7800149000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f77ffeeb000) libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007f77ffb90000) libz.so.1 => /lib64/libz.so.1 (0x00007f77ff97a000) libm.so.6 => /lib64/libm.so.6 (0x00007f77ff724000) /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f78007d6000) You probably are getting something like: linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fffcd1ff000) libhdf5.so.6 => not found libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f9205b1a000) libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007f92057bf000) /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f9205f85000) So, you should fix the path to reach dynamic libraries. Do a `man ld` for details, but setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable usually helps. -- Francesc Alted ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
