Hi there, when I try to run SDKTool, I get the following error:
./SDKtool: error while loading shared libraries: ssc.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

See the following screencast:

Chris,

Have you tried running the SDKtool from the latest SAM release 2021.12.02?

Attached is a screen shot from running the SDKtool on CentOS7

Chris,

Also, with the latest update to 2020.11.29.r2, the SDKtool runs without the error message you showed on CentOS7 per the attached screenshot.

Please check your SAM installation for 2020.11.29.r2 ssc 256 and update if necessary.

Let us know if you continue to have issues.

Hi @sjanzou! Thank you for your help, and sorry for the delay in responding. I tried both your suggestions, but they didn't work. Here is a recording of SDKTool failing to run in the latest version of SAM (2021.12.02).

I was able to solve the issue! I had to define the following environment variable before running the program (e.g. in my
~/.profile
file):
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:<path-to-SAM>/linux_64

Where
<path-to-SAM>
is the path to the root directory of the SAM installation.
