When I try to run memcached from shell I get:
memcached: error while loading shared libraries: libevent-1.1a.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
However, i’ve installed a newer version using yum install libevent. I have also created a .conf file in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ to say where it is. I have confirmed that libconfig is loading it from the correct location.
so, how do I get memcached to load it from the correct place?
I’ve done yum install memcached and that has installed memcached 1.4.5-1.e15 and libevent 1.4.13-1. Running Centos5.2 final. I’ve gone for even removing both and trying again, still no go.
