$LD_LIBRARY_PATH not set

[cweagans]

Steps to reproduce:

1. Compile openconnect in the 15.04 container
2. Run openconnect and get this error:

openconnect: error while loading shared libraries: libopenconnect.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

To fix, I added this to my Dockerfile:

ENV LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/lib:/usr/lib:/lib

Is there any reason not to make this the default?

Hmm, did you try adding RUN ldconfig to your Dockerfile after openconnect is compiled to force the .so cache to be refreshed?

(See python for an example of this, which also compiles into /usr/local: https://github.com/docker-library/python/blob/2f33ab315894baa2d881e2a72ab298a5b67c2687/3.5/Dockerfile#L32)

I didn't try that, no. I'll give it a go in a few days (pretty busy with other things atm).

Sounds good (and no rush)! 👍

Closing, but feel free to open a new issue with more details if you can reproduce! 👍
