Caffe: Problem when build Caffe on Ubuntu 14.04

Created on 29 Nov 2015 · 16Comments · Source: BVLC/caffe

Hi, all. I met a problem when I was building newest caffe on Ubuntu 14.04. I have successfully build a older version of caffe on the same environment. There is the log output. I don't know how to solve this problem? Can anyone give some suggestions?

@mrasyid , for me, just rm /usr/local/lib/libcaffe.*

I just did a build with fresh sources yesterday with no problems, but I was
on 15.10. It could be a problem specific to the way you setup your
configuration, or something has changed in your 14.04 environment.

Hi, James
How do you solve this problem? I have just meet the same problem

twnming on 30 Nov 2015

Hi,
I am getting the same problem. How did you resolve it?

chiggum on 1 Jan 2016

I had the same problem too.

orpal on 27 Feb 2016

hi, i am getting the same problem on ubuntu 15.10. How did you resolve it?

liao1995 on 27 Apr 2016

getting the same error ? any solution to this issue

srawat on 1 May 2016

:( same problem. Why no solution?

hsmgroup on 14 Jun 2016

Check if you already have caffe installed somewhere. It seems like it's trying to linking something else.

thanks, @minghuam . It works.

mittlin on 23 Jun 2016

More information please

RovertW on 7 Oct 2016

@mittlin, how do you solve it based on @minghuam clue? thanks.

mrasyid on 9 Dec 2016

@mrasyid , for me, just rm /usr/local/lib/libcaffe.*

@mittlin, thanks! I'll try it!

mrasyid on 9 Dec 2016

@mittlin, it works! thanks a lot!

mrasyid on 9 Dec 2016

For those without root authority, it is convenient to add _./build/lib_ ahead of default libcaffe.* locations(usually _/usr/local/lib_), when setting _LIBRARY_DIRS_

Hello everyone,
it is also work for this error
