Problems with UE4Editor after setting it up

stebp · April 20, 2015, 10:13pm

I’ve followed the tutorial [here][1] step by step and everything compiled without any problems, however when I tried to run UE4Editor I got the following error: ./UE4Editor: error while loading shared libraries: libLND.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

UPDATE:
Well, I managed to sidestep that problem by creating a symbolic link between all the files in the directory they were in, and the UE4E directory, namely:

ln -s /Engine/Source/ThirdParty/LinuxNativeDialogs/UELinuxNativeDialogs/lib/Linux/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/libLND(-gtk2, -gtk3, -qt4, -qt5).so /Engine/Binaries/Linux/libLND(-gtk2, -gtk3, -qt4, -qt5).so

However, once I started the UE4Editor what I got as a greeting was this:

Hey stebp-

In the Building On Linux page you linked, did you use 3dluvr’s repository or the Epic Games repository? Under “First Time Setup” change the first step to “git clone https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine -b release” to make sure you get the latest release branch from GitHub. I would also suggest using a folder path other than the desktop for this. From here you can continue with the Setup.sh, GenerateProjectFiles.sh and the “make…” steps. Let us know if you run into any problems along the way.

Cheers

Hey , I actually have the UnrealEngine folder cloned in my home directory.

I tried your suggestion, and this time I didn’t have to symbolically link libLND.so to the Binaries/Linux folder, however after running UE4Editor I am still getting the image above.

Just a quick check, is the language of your system set to something other than English? If so, do you see the same thing if you change the language setting? If not can check if you have the same issue with the 4.7 branch rather than the release branch?

Hey , the language of my system was set to English (United States), so I tried changing it to English (United Kingdom); no difference. I’ll try the 4.7 branch. I tried running UE4Editor from the command line before I changed the language, and among all the messages that showed up, a few of them were in brown:

Hey stebp-

What type of hardware and drivers are you using? It could be that drivers need to be updated if there is an issue supporting the textures format used. You can check this page for additional information.
