I have installed: xerces-c_2_8_0-x86-linux-gcc_3_4.tar.gz on my SLED_11 (SuSE linux Enterprise)
The site: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4522/
ask me to export this PATH: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/sigbj/xerces-c_2_8_0-x86-linux-gcc_3_4/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Then to install the addon for xml above.
The firefox returns this message when trying to open xml signatur processing tool in the extras/key manager toolbox of the firefox 3.5.9: "Failed to load shared librararies and/or register XPCOM componenets for XML Digital Signature tool . Make sure that DLLs (shared libraries) from Apache Xerces-C++ and Xalan-C++ (for FF2 only) are in your PATH (LD_LIBRARY_PATH) environment variable."
The LD_PATH can be easily found with: env | grep LD_LIBRARY
I have aløso tried to put the export line into .bashrc and ld.so.conf and run /sbin/ldconf
The return from ldconf is: "/sbin/ldconfig: /home/sigbj/xerces-c_2_8_0-x86-linux-gcc_3_4/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH ist ein unbekannter Bibliothekstyp" "........unknown library type"
How can I solve this problem? What am I overlooking?
