But when I try to launch my electron application to a Ubuntu 16.04Lts machine even though I managed to make run without issues during the execution I get the following error:
symbol lookup error: /home/pcmagas/Kwdikas/master_thesis/custom_xmpp/node_modules/bignum/build/Release/bignum.node: undefined symbol: BN_new
I also tried to reinstall all the libraries as well via the following command set:
The error can be reproduced into he following code:
const { app, BrowserWindow, ipcMain } = require('electron');
const bignum = require('bignum');
// Keep a global reference of the window object, if you don't, the window will
// be closed automatically when the JavaScript object is garbage collected.
let mainWindow;
const bignumValue = bignum("FFA122310DC", 16);
const createWindow = () => {
// Create the browser window.
mainWindow = new BrowserWindow({
globals:{
num: bignumValue.toString()
}
});
mainWindow.setMenu(null);
mainWindow.maximize();
// and load the index.html of the app.
mainWindow.loadURL(`file://${__dirname}/index.html`);
mainWindow.on('closed', () => {
mainWindow = null;
});
};
// This method will be called when Electron has finished
// initialization and is ready to create browser windows.
// Some APIs can only be used after this event occurs.
app.on('ready', createWindow);
app.on('before-quit', () => {
if (xmpp) {
xmpp.disconnect();
}
});
// Quit when all windows are closed.
app.on('window-all-closed', () => {
// On OS X it is common for applications and their menu bar
// to stay active until the user quits explicitly with Cmd + Q
if (process.platform !== 'darwin') {
app.quit();
}
});
app.on('activate', () => {
// On OS X it's common to re-create a window in the app when the
// dock icon is clicked and there are no other windows open.
if (mainWindow === null) {
createWindow();
}
});
process.on('unhandledRejection', (reason, p) => {
console.error('Possibly Unhandled Rejection at: Promise ', p, ' reason: ', reason);
});
process.on('SIGINT', () => {
if (xmpp) {
xmpp.disconnect();
}
process.exit(0);
});
But a native nodejs code runs without errors for example this piece of code:
const bignum = require('bignum');
const big = bignum('AAFCD11234334BBAAFD',16);
console.log(big.toString());
I managed to install the library to my project like that:

But I still get the error do you know why?
