Hi there,

after installing gazebo from source I get the following error when I try to run it:

gazebo: error while loading shared libraries: libgazebo_common.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

in the installation tutorial there is a warning that something similar might happen, however the given commands did not fix the issue.

by running the command with my local installation:

echo '/home/haidu/bin/gazebo_3.0/lib/' | sudo tee /etc/ld.so.conf.d/gazebo.conf 
sudo ldconfig

I get the same error.

However, if I use

echo '/home/haidu/bin/gazebo_3.0/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/' | sudo tee /etc/ld.so.conf.d/gazebo.conf 
sudo ldconfig

I get this error.

================UPDATE==========================

if I install in to the default location, my libraries are in /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu instead of /usr/local/lib , and I get the same error.

================UPDATE==========================

In line 6 there is this error:

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libOgreMain.so.1.7.4(+0x146333)[0x7f60992c4333]

Meaning that gazebo is trying to run OGRE 1.7.4 instead of 1.8.0 (both versions being available on a fresh Ubuntu 13.04 install, gazebo3 from source being the first thing installed). If I remove OGRE 1.7.4 it complains that it doesn't find CEGUI, which I guess comes with 1.7.4

I would recommend run a system installation, if possible, it would make things easier. Just by using:

cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr

If a system installation is not possible, I would recommend to use LD_LIBRARY_PATH when run gazebo in the following way:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/andrei/install/lib gazebo

or

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib gazebo
