Title: [Solved] OKcash wallet won't start on Ubuntu after update
Post by: mvid on March 05, 2017, 05:43:17 PM
I updated my Ubuntu and now get an error as follows:

$ ./okcash
./okcash: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_system.so.1.58.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Looking up libboost_system.so*, I see that i have
/usr/lib/libboost_system.so.1.61.0

Should i re-install the wallet?

Ok, so I got the wallet working again.

I downloaded the older source code from
https://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.58.0/

I compiled it but it didn't get put into place properly, so I just manually copied all the libboost_*.so.1.58.0 files into /usr/lib

Then the wallet started up fine, but i know this is probably a bad solution so I sent all my coins from there to my coinomi wallet.  Will probably blow away my current okcash wallet and re-install.
