Hi
I can’t open Slicer on Ubuntu 16.04 64 bits :
Linux 4.13.0-38-generic #43~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP
I tried 2 releases :
1- “Slicer-4.9.0-2018-04-25-linux-amd64” and " , I got this error :
error: Failed to obtain launcher executable name !
2- Slicer-4.0.0-linux-amd64/ ; got the following error :
./bin/SlicerQT-real: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.0.9.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Any idea !
Thank you
By the way,
I already opened an topic regarding the same issue :
I still can’t use Slicer, and I need this software on Linux.
Thank again
Try deleting the Slicer folder setting in your home(rename it if you still need it)
rm -rf ~/.config/NA-MIC
Or
mv ~/.config/NA-MIC ~/.config/SlicerBK
Then run Slicer again.
@brhoom
thank you for your feedback
in fact, there is no folder on my home directory
Try lo locate the NA-MIC directory :
find $HOME -type d -name “NA-MIC”
Some distros don’t put config files in $HOME/.config/
it is a hidden folder, you just need to run one of the commands I mentioned above then run slicer again. copy paste the command in the terminal and let us know what message you got. No messages means the command run without problem.
what is the path of your Slicer. Did you build it yourself or just downloaded the binary from Slicer website?
I placed in ~/Software/Slicer
The path looks ok. When Slicer run it should create NA-MIC folder in .config. I suggest you try to download the stable version 4.8.1 then extract it in ~/Software then run Slicer in a terminal like this
~/Software/Slicer-4.8.1-linux-amd64/Slicer
if it does not work please write your terminal output here.
Try also to re-download the nightly build. Sometimes, the downloaded file is corrupted.
