Missing Library in Ubuntu (libvtk7.1)

[Mahmoud Elhadidy]

Hi, Hope you are doing well!
After creating the simulation file and once I try to start running them I got this error:

Simulation job 'Sim1' has failed with non-zero exit code 127.
/usr/local/sv/svsolver/2021-09-30/bin/svsolver-nompi: error while loading shared libraries: libvtkIOXML-7.1.so.7.1p: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


I tried different versions of SimVascular and SvSolver but still with the same error, also tried installing libvtk7 on my ubuntu but I always face this error:
"E: Unable to locate package libvtk7"
so how to solve this?

Hello,

Try using the latest 2022-07 svSolver release.

Which Ubuntu version are you using?

Cheers,

Hello,

We are not yet building svSolver on Ubuntu 23.04.

You will need to install or build Vtk 7 and set LD_LIBRARY to point to those libraries.

You could also try to build from source.
