Trying to run a freshly built and packaged dedicated server on linux results in this error:

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

I found the other answerhub post related to building

and

Async Loading and Event Driven loading are disabled.

Please advise.

Hey,

This is holding me up as well. If anyone can chime in please do.

Could you please elaborate on repro steps? In particular, what project are you packaging and whether that project have WebBrowser plugin enabled?

Thanks for the clarification. I’ll try to repro and get the JIRA in - should be an easy fix.

Hi RCL!

This is a fairly basic third person example project using online subsystem facebook. With the new “LoginFlow” functionality, OSS facebook uses the CEF web browser in-engine on the client. I don’t think the server needs CEF for anything, so I’m not sure why it’s throwing this error.

Should be fixed in this commit, which will be in 4.17.2. Thanks for reporting!
