Cannot debug error while loading shared libraries: libtest-758a09c353a92957.so

[furstenheim]

Environment

• IntelliJ Rust plugin version:
• 0.4.167.4525-213
• Rust toolchain version:
• rustc 1.59.0
• IDE name and version:
• clion 11.0.14.1+1-b1751.46 amd64
• Operating system:
• Linux 18

Problem description

When debugging some tests it fails with a failure to find a shared library. Other tests run just as fine

Steps to reproduce

This project has two cargos https://github.com/furstenheim/challenge_deserializer/tree/test-macro-directly,
One for the macro, the other that uses the macro. Both of them have one test.

From intellij I can execute both tests and I can debug the test in challenge_encoding_macro.

However, If I try to debug the test in https://github.com/furstenheim/challenge_deserializer/blob/test-macro-directly/challenge_encoding_derive/src/test.rs it fails with " error while loading shared libraries: libtest-758a09c353a92957.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

I am having the same issue, IntelliJ 221.5921.22, rust plugin 0.4.174.4743-221, rustc 1.61.1 on Linux Mint. I was trying to debug some rust-clippy unit tests. I have also seen it elsewhere. Running tests (without debug) works just fine.

UPDATE: Seems like the issue was related to the missing LD_LIBRARY_PATH, so adding it to the debug configuration makes it work:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=~/.rustup/toolchains/nightly-2022-07-15-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

I'm also using CLion with the Rust plugin, I'm working on a game using the Bevy game engine and I'm getting the same error but with libbevy_dylib:

error while loading shared libraries: libbevy_dylib-3888e9814c2a97bf.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

How would I go about fixing this error for the libbevy_dylib?

Update 1:

I found this stack overflow page: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/480764/linux-error-while-loading-shared-libraries-cannot-open-shared-object-file-no-s and used the command sudo find / -name libbevy_dylib-3888e9814c2a97bf.so to find where this file is at /home/my_user/Development/rust/bevy-game/target/debug/deps/libbevy_dylib-3888e9814c2a97bf.so and exported the path as the instructions state.

Now I'm not sure how to add that to my CLion+Rust project configuration for the debugger to find.

I opened my project configuration, opened the environment variables tab, and added an entry with key LD_LIBRARY_PATH and value /home/my_user/Development/rust/bevy-game/target/debug/deps/libbevy_dylib-3888e9814c2a97bf.so and I am still getting the same error.

@frederickjjoubert I guess the path to the containing directory should be used, instead of the file itself. Please try setting
LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable in the Run Configuration settings to $PROJECT_DIR$/target/debug/deps/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH and let us know if that helps.

@ortem Thank you for your reply. I changed my project environment variables to be key LD_LIBRARY_PATH and value $PROJECT_DIR$/target/debug/deps/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH and I'm still getting the same error unfortunately.

After following the other guide, when I run echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH I get output :/home/my_user/Development/rust/bevy-game/target/debug/deps/

Setting an environment variable in my CLion Cargo Run configuration to

LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/path/to/project/target/debug/deps:/home/user/.rustup/toolchains/stable-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" 

allowed me to properly use the CLion debugger.
