Hi
Please will some one help me with what is probably a simple Linux error?
I have installed Boost 1.40 on Centos 5.3 using an rpm from blackopsoft.com.
When I run my executable I get:
Failed to load the following library files: [snip] dlerror = libboost_python.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Executing:
/sbin/ldconfig -p | grep boost
gives:
libboost_python-mt.so.1.40.0 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib64/libboost_python-mt.so.1.40.0 libboost_python-mt.so (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib64/libboost_python-mt.so libboost_python-mt-d.so.1.40.0 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib64/libboost_python-mt-d.so.1.40.0 libboost_python-mt-d.so (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib64/libboost_python-mt-d.so
Please can anyone suggest what is wrong?
Best regards
David

Personally I would build it from source. Its very easy on Linux. You can just download the tarball from boost.org and follow the guide on the site on how to build it.
From the looks of the error message I cannot say for sure what is going on. Can you post the entire message? I would say off the start its looking for the non-multithreaded version.
