[Gate-users] Subject: Re: Trouble Compiling gate_v5_0_0_p1

[Fares Alhassen]

Dear all,

In order to get GATE to compile, I had to go back and re-compile CLHEP,
geant4, and root. However, now I have another problem. When I try to run
GATE, I receive this error message:

"error while loading shared libraries: libGate.so: cannot open shared object
file: No such file or directory"

I found libGate.so in my /gate_v6.0_p01/tmp/Linux64-g++/Gate/ directory. I
tried copying it to other subfolders within my gate directory to see if GATE
would find it. No luck.

Any suggestions?

Sincerely,
Fares
