cannot start zm

[freak]

I'm trying to get 1.24.0 working and have been dealing with ffmpeg. Zm never starts and zmpkg.log shows

Code: Select all

 02/13/09 14:50:24.187448 zmpkg[12705].ERR [Unable to run "/usr/local/bin/zmfix", output is ""]

Running zmfix or ffmpeg from the command line gives the following error...

Code: Select all

zmfix: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/lib/libavcodec.so.52: undefined symbol: av_gcd

I followed the instructions at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=786095 exactly to get ffmpeg working.

Any tips?[/code]

Any tips?

Yup.. Apparently for some stupid reason any given ubuntu install may or may not (??) have /usr/local/lib included in /etc/ld.so.conf so try this ---

$ cat /etc/ld.so.conf
if `/usr/local/lib` is not in the file, add it
$ echo "/usr/local/lib" >> /etc/ld.so.conf
and then run
$ ldconfig

and see if that helps.

Run ldconfig anyway since make install with ffmpeg may not be doing it either.

Had the same or similar issue. Tried the suggestions here without any change, but

zmupdate.pl -f

resolved the issue.

That will update the databases. I'm not so sure about fixing unresolved symbol (library issues).
