Installation Problem - error while loading shared libraries {Scanned} {Scanned}

[Siki Zoltan]

Hi,

you can use ldd command to see what shared libraries are mapserv depend
on:
ldd mapserv

check the directories and files.
You may add some directories to the /etc/ld.so.conf file.
Don't forget to reread the config file with

ldconfig

bye
