[Mapserver-users] Mapserver and Libgd

[pdalfarra@ibelgique.com]

So here is my very first message on this mailing
list..

First I have to say that I am not a Linux geek, but
anyway, I have tried to compile and deploy mapserver
on mandrake 8.
I have downloaded a lot of mapserver related stuff,
as gd 2.
I manage to compile the all thing and obtain a
mapserver binary file, but, when I try to execute it
(manually or when it is deployed in my cgi-bin
directory) I have this error message.

[root@localhost mapserver-3.6.3]# ./mapserv
./mapserv: error while loading shared libraries:
libgd.so.2: cannot load shared object file: No such
file or directory

I don't understand since I have a libgd.so.2 file
(soft link) in my /usr/local/lib directory which is
pointing to /usr/local/lib/libgd.so.2.0.0 that I
obtain when I compile gd-2.0.9.

Here are the packages I have downloaded and compiled
(using ./configure, then make (sometimes with needed
options), and finally make install (or some other
make target corresponding to a classic make install):

freetype-2.1.3
gd-2.0.9
jpeg-6b
libpng-1.2.5
mapserver-3.6.3
proj-4.4.5
shapelib-1.2.9
tiff-v3.5.7
w3c-libwww-5.4.0
zlib-1.1.4

Can somone help?

Thanx a lot for helping me in this task and prevent
me from having to install the windows mapserver
version ... ;-)
