[SOLVED] Can't run the Linux version [Driver not loaded Driver not loaded]

Support Client software
1

Hi, I am running a fresh install of Linux Mint 19.1 that I installed yesterday. I have not been able to get the Linux version of Whatpulse to run despite following the install instructions and installing boatloads of libqt libsql packages. I’ve tried installing multiple times, I’ve tried all the 64 bit versions and all the 32 bit versions, I’ve tried deleting all the files it generates, I’ve tried running in sudo, I get the same error. I’ve tried reinstalling all the dependencies. I’m not a Linux person so forgive me if I’m making some blatant error, I just can’t figure out how to even get the application started. The Mac version just works, it’s just this Linux version that has the error. This is a completely new install, I haven’t screwed with it or anything, just followed all the instructions and it didn’t work. The error I get is:

radioz@THINKPAD:~/Downloads/wp2$ ./whatpulse

It’s always the same error, I don’t know how to fix it. This has been posted before, but the thread is from 2005 and the links are broken.

I have no idea how to fix this, does anyone know how this error happens or how to rectify it?

Ha, that was my thread - and by that age it had to be the old, old linux client which is quite different from the current version. And sorry for the broken links, I relaunched my website in the meantime and threw away all those miscellaneous images… :confused:

Maybe I can help you, I haven’t used LinuxMint in a while, but on a freshly installed Xubuntu 18.04 I just needed to install the following packages (and their dependencies) and WhatPulse would run (after using the two setup scripts that come with it pcap and input permissions)

apt install libssl1.0-dev libqt5widgets5 libqt5sql5-sqlite

Thanks so much, this fixed my install :slight_smile:
