Helpful BigFix/QnA Tip: Launching QnA on Linux


Vanilla installs of the BigFix client will include QnA for development and debugging purposes.  But one problem…

if you try to launch it you receive the following error:

qna: error while loading shared libraries: libBEScrypto_1_0_0_1.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The way to fix that is to execute the following command…

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/BESClient/bin

This will let you launch QnA on several flavors of Linux…
(Tested on CentOS and openSUSE)
