zlib.h: No such file or directory #23

Closed ShawnCone closed 5 years ago

Hi,

I'm trying to install cortex by cloning the repo and bash install.sh but it gives me the error: fatal error: zlib.h: No such file or directory

I do not have root permissions, and I tried downloading zlib manually and add to LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but it still does not work. Would you please help me on this error?

Thank you

Is it possible to ask your system administrator to do something like this

sudo apt-get install libz-dev

ShawnCone commented 5 years ago

Thank you for the quick reply, I have contacted the admins of my cluster. In the meantime, would there be a possible way to do an equivalent command without root permissions?

Thank you very much for the help, it worked after asking the admins to install it. Thank you!
