So can we assume you just installed (clean or upgrade?) openSUSE 11.4 and is that 32 or 64 bit? What desktop are you using (GNOME or KDE?) Did you change any of the partitioning to point the tmp folder somewhere else than normal? Can you open a terminal session, execute these commands and post the output here in a message for us to see? :
su -
password:
fdisk -l
cat /etc/fstab
You do not enter the word password, but rather enter the root user password. Copy and past the results of these commands into a message here and perhaps we can see why you would get this kind of error. Use the advanced message editor, highlight the posted text and press the code “#” button to place it in a code field to prevent it from being reformatted in your message post.
Thank You,

What is needed is the exact sequence of commands and results. What did you
and what happened.

Thank you for such a quick reply. I resolved the problem now using the following commands (which I found else where):
su -
zypper rr PK_TMP_DIR
However, I come across a new problem. I don’t know if I can continue in the same thread. First, I had the following error:
“error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory”
So, I went online and downloaded libpng12.so.0 and when I am trying to install it, it stops installing by giving me the following error:
“libpng12-devel-1.2.49-16.1.x86_64 requires libpng12-0 = 1.2.49, but this requirement cannot be provided”
Any comments on how to proceed this.
Thanks
Kumar

Code tags, code tags…

No, you do not go downloading anything at all. You fire up yast package
manager or zypper, find the package you want to install, and install it.
So, first thing you do, is fire up yast, select “online update”, and let it
update everything it wants. Reboot if necessary. Then fire up yast, select
“software management”, select “search” and search for that “libpng12” you
want, and let it install it.

Sorry about the code tags. I will get it right from next time…
I first searched YaST for “libpng12.so.0” and installed some ‘libpng12’ files it showed. Yet I keep getting the error messsage that ‘libpng12.so.0’ is missing. That is why I searched online and installed the rpm file. However, I am now updating all the programs that need to be updated in YaST and will see how it goes.

After libpng12 is installed, you may need to log out and back in to the
GUI (at least) or simply restart the system. The library list may not be
updated for your current session (hence why a reboot is /probably/ not
possible).

OK what program is wanting this?? Is your OS 64 bit version or 32? If 64 and the program is 32 it may require the 32 bit version of the library. Find the package for that lib that has 32 in the name and install that.

What is that program that gives you that error, where did it came, and how
exactly did you install it?
> That is why I searched online and installed

Searching random places is a recipe for errors. You have to use packages
designed for openSUSE 11.4, and let the package manager solve the
dependencies. You will find almost everything on the buildservice.

A recent post mentioned precisely libpng12 not being found, and the problem
was that that the system was recently installed and not updated, whereas
the application requiring it being newly made - thus the failing dep.
That’s the reason I recommended to run YOU first, but he is doing it last
My memory is not as precise as it was, but this thing is recent and I
remember

Ok, I updated all the programs on YaST, rebooted it, searched for libpng12 and all the results were already installed. I went and tried to run my program and still the same problem exists.
My computer is 64 bit. I am trying to install a software called LS-Prepost. I installed both 32 bit version and the other versions but no change. I already ran out of options so far. I will be waiting for your reply…
Thanks,
Kumar
Hi Jim,
I did logout, restarted the system and tried again. But the same error exists: “error while loading shared libraries: libpng12.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory”
I appreciate any comments or options.
Thanks
Kumar
Hi Carlos,
Thank you for the response. I did install both the Suse and LS-Prepost software recently. But I was successful in installing this software in other 32bit computer. But that computer was too slow and I was required to install on a faster 64bit computer. Now, it is frustrating to come across this problem. I have been trying this for hours. But no progress.
I can’t wait to get out of this problem.
Thanks,
Kumar
Funny, I just went to the directory: “/usr/lib/” and I find the ‘libpng12.so.0’. But I do not see the same ‘libpng.12.so.0’ in “/usr/lib64/”. Does it mean anything?
I also see libpng14.so, libpng14.so.14 and libpng14.so.14.4.0. I hope the presence of these files are not messing it up.
Thanks
Kumar

If this is a 64-bit system, then you need to look in /usr/lib64 for the
library.
You might also try going to a terminal prompt and just typing:
sudo ldconfig -i
That’ll rebuild the library cache - but do that after installing the 64-
bit library if you are running openSUSE 12.1 x86_64.

Hi Jim,
I am running openSUSE 11.4. When I searched the YaST, I did not find 64 bit version specifically. As I mentioned earlier, I do not see libpng2.so.0 file in ‘/usr/lib64’. How do I install 64 bit library now?
Thanks
Kumar

He said it was 11.4 64 bit, yes. And he probably needs the libraries both
in /usr/lib and /usr/lib64
I have these installed - he should not need the devel parts - but notice
there are -32bit parts which he probably needs:
cer@Telcontar:~> rpm -qa | grep -i libpng
libpng14-14-1.4.4-20.1.x86_64
libpng14-devel-1.4.4-20.1.x86_64
libpng14-compat-devel-1.4.4-20.1.x86_64
libpng12-0-32bit-1.2.49-16.1.x86_64
libpng14-14-32bit-1.4.4-20.1.x86_64
libpng12-0-1.2.49-16.1.x86_64
It appears he is trying to install “LS-Prepost”, which apparently is a
preprocesor for LS-DYNA:
+++··················
LS-DYNA is an advanced general-purpose multiphysics simulation software
package developed by the Livermore Software Technology Corporation (LSTC).
While the package continues to contain more and more possibilities for the
calculation of many complex, real world problems, its origins and
core-competency lie in highly nonlinear transient dynamic finite element
analysis (FEA) using explicit time integration. LS-DYNA is being used by
the automobile, aerospace, construction, military, manufacturing, and
bioengineering industries.
…
LS-DYNA consists of a single executable file and is entirely command line
driven. Therefore all that is required to run LS-DYNA is a command shell,
the executable, an input file, and enough free disk space to run the
calculation. All input files are in simple ASCII format and thus can be
prepared using any text editor. Input files can also be prepared with the
aid of a graphical preprocessor. There are many third party software
products available for preprocessing LS-DYNA input files (e.g.TrueGrid).
LSTC also develops its own preprocessor, LS-PrePost, which is freely
distributed and runs without a license. Licensees of LS-DYNA automatically
have access to all of the program’s capabilities, from simple linear static
mechanical analysis up to advanced thermal and flow solving methods.
Furthermore they have full use of LSTC’s LS-OPT software, a standalone
design optimization and probabilistic analysis package with an interface to
LS-DYNA.
··················+±
The wikipedia does not say what type of license this thing has, which is
strange. I’m afraid the application will be 32 bits, which would be very
strange for such type of software.

Run and post here (in code tags) this: “rpm -qa | grep -i libpng”
