Make sure you have the libzmq.so shared library in /usr/local/lib. Looks like you only have the static .a lib

[san]

You are correct. but after installation of zeroMQ 2.1.7 only .a lib installed and not libzmq.so.

 

Do we missing any installation step ?

[R.M.Sasi Mugunthan]

Hi Adrian,

This "libzmq.so" file not even available under zeromq-2.1.7.tar.gz. Do we need to copy this so file explicitly to lib folder or this will be copied as part of zmq installation.

Note: We have successfully installed zmq 2.1.7 in our Linux Server release 5.6 (Tikanga)

Please clarify

Thanks.
Sasi

This is because your system is based on x64 arch. 

You should do this:

cd /usr/local/lib

sudo rm -rf libzmq.so

sudo ln -s ../../lib64/libzmq.so.3.0.0 libzmq.so
