Hyprland: error while loading shared libraries: libhyprlang.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Try installing hyprlang, it's a dependency that might've not been automatically installed for some reason.

DaraghD commented 6 months ago

Can you try run find /usr/lib -type f -name "*.so*" | grep libhyprlang If it finds anything you can try and symlink it, sudo ln -s /usr/lib/<the one thats found> /usr/lib/libhyprlang.so.1 This may or may not work, i've had similar issues in the past with libraries and this fixed it. Libraries could be in a different place - this is arch atleast.

i already tried that, but with no luck

removing hyprland-git and installing the latest release of hyprland fixed my issue

I have the exact same issue. I have hyprlang installed, with the symlink, and I'm still not able to login. I'm using 0.37.1 (manual copy install). Things were working fine a little while ago.

DaraghD commented 6 months ago

Did you make the symlink to the library it was looking to specifically ? , in the one I replied to it was libhyprlang.so.1 but yours may be a different number at the end e.g - If the error was libhyprlang.so.3 , your symlink would be to that. sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libhyprlang.so.<number that was found> /usr/lib/libhyprlang.so.<number in error> If the symlink is 100% set up correctly and it still cant find the library then I dont know, sorry.

Responded but didnt quote reply, not sure if you get a notification so sending this aswell just incase.

@ DaraghD

Yes. it's libhyprlang.so.1 for me too (although I installed mine to /usr/local) and the symlink points to libhyprlang.so.0.5.0 as needed. Not sure what exactly changed for me. Things were working fine for me until these last few days. Although I am on Ubuntu 23.10 so I realize performance/functionality may be spotty. Things were fine on 0.35.0 but I lost ability to drag floating windows on 0.36. And now this.

Thanks for responding and for all your effort to help.

DaraghD commented 6 months ago

Thats unfortunate, I would suggest making another issue to get more attention or trying the ubuntu forums or hyprland discord. There are a lot of people out there that can definitely help you ( and that have more knowledge than me ), hope you fix it :heart:

vaskark commented 6 months ago

Those are great ideas for further help. I'll try again.

Many thanks. It's a beautiful wm and I hope to continue using it.

vaskark commented 6 months ago

Ok. I think I figured it out. I installed hyprlang into /usr/local. And had no problems til recently. I needed to do this:

sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libhyprlang.so.0.5.0 /usr/lib/libhyprlang.so.1 -- NOT /usr/local!

I can login again \o/ I might just install hyprlang fully into /usr just to be safe. Everything else I'll keep as /usr/local until I know different.

sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libhyprlang.so.0.5.0 /usr/lib/libhyprlang.so.1 -- NOT /usr/local!

please don't do that. Just recompile your hyprland.

vaxerski commented 6 months ago

This issue is invalid. Please match your dependencies against your packages.

Arch will do it for you if you use the repos. If you use -git, it's your responsibility.

Symlinking ABI-incompatible .so files will only lead to memory corruption and crashes. Do not link any libraries ever for fucks sake the numbers are there for a reason
