hi James well all that means is that it needs to access MySQL and as it is using the LD_LIBRARY_PATH which means it needs to access the "libmysqlclient_r.so" file.

U can search for it and then u know what path to use as you not posted what Linux system its hard to guess as all change try /usr/lib/mysql/lib

 

Hope that helps

You have to create an environment variable.  This is usually done in the bashrc file.  What linux distro are you using?  General steps:

 

vim ~/.bashrc

 

Add the env var:

 

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH='/user/lib/mysql/lib'
