Hi,

I was able to build VSG from the /contrib/Linux folder. It built without issues. 
I was able to configure cmakes for the various VSG deps as well.
The main chrono also built successfully. However, I can't launch any of the binaries of the demos.
Please see the attached screenshots. 

Cheers,
sal

Also,  the libdraco_d.so.9 does exist.  I think the ccmake curses never asked for the draco dependency, but I will defer to you for help.

Thanks,
Sal

Hi Salman,

Thank you for reaching out. Please note that Project Chrono will note automatically find dependencies for you, so you might need to define the path to them manually. 

Specifically, you might need to run "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="<Your VSG installation path>" before you run binaries. For example, if your "libdraco_d.so.9" file exists in "/home/sbel/vsg_dst_11/lib/libdraco_d.so.9", you should run "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/sbel/vsg_dst_11/lib;$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"

Best,

Bocheng Zou
