Mageia forum

Zoom is a video conference software that I need for work.
They have packages for a few different Linux distros but not for mageia. There is a tar file to download as well.

I would like to know if someone have successfully installed Zoom on mageia and could guide me how to do it.

https://zoom.us/
https://zoom.us/download

I downloaded the installation files and tried to run zoom.

I got this error message:
"error while loading shared libraries: libX11.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

How can I install this library?
I run the 64bit version of mageia

With urpmf filename you can query in which packages that file is contained, and if it's a library you can simply provide the library filename to urpmi and it will automatically install the packages that provides this library.

Please check our software management MAQeia for more information on software and package management.

Thank you doktor. It looks like I have the package installed then, but the zoom installer cant find it.
end of the road for me.

Would you mind to post the complete command you entered and the complete output you get?
Maybe it's just an architecture difference, like you have an 32bit installer but only the 64bit libX11.so installed, that won't work.

Please provide the output of

Code: Select all

locate libX11.so.6
arch

I think tats the problem. I have the 64bit mageia, and the installer asks for 32bit packages.

I just cd'd into the installer directory and

Code: Select all

$ ./zoom
./zoom: error while loading shared libraries: libglib-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


Heres the outout of the comand

Code: Select all

$ locate libX11.so.6
/usr/lib64/libX11.so.6
/usr/lib64/libX11.so.6.3.0

FWIW, the fedora package can be used to install it with a workaround, as the library packages are called slightly different then compared to Fedora.

This is what it looks like, you would need a complete set of 32bit repositories set up to install the dependencies.
You also have to re-run

Code: Select all

urpmi --allow-nodeps ./ZoomInstaller_i686.rpm

several times until the actual package gets installed,
beforehand only the required dependencies are installed.

As it's a 32bit program it requires the 32bit libxcb-xfixes0 package. Afterwards zoom starts fine under Mageia 5.

You should have mentioned that in the first place. Also, 32bit repos are by default enabled on 64bit installation.

And check my previous post on how to install the fedora package: viewtopic.php?p=60328#p60328

Ok I will try to do it tomorrow, now it's bed time.
Thank you so much for your help. I really appreciate it.

Whohooo!!!

Thank's again doktor!

I did the installation of the Fedora rpm package as you described in the previous post viewtopic.php?p=60328#p60328 and now I have Zoom installed and working.

Glad I found this post.. I urgently need to get this software up and running. I have come across this so far which was not mentioned above:

[root@localhost octavia]# urpmi zoom_x86_64.rpm
A requested package cannot be installed:
zoom-2.0.75971.1216-1.x86_64 (due to unsatisfied mesa-dri-drivers)
Continue installation anyway? (Y/n)
Which Mesa-dri-drivers would I need 32bit or 64bit?

Thanks Doktor

I tried like above and ran [root@localhost octavia]# urpmi --allow-nodeps ./ZoomInstaller_i686.rpm
unable to access rpm file [./ZoomInstaller_i686.rpm]
error registering local packages
Thanks Doktor

Call me stupid... But is the Fedora RPM package that gets downloaded the 32bit or 64 bit.. Given I have a 64bit OS

Thanks Doktor

Sure, first please stop crossposting about one issue in three different threads.

Will do. I see I had some talk of some in viewtopic.php?f=7&t=11544 not in my other 2 posts.. Ill keep Zoom here as seems most relevant thread. Are you able to provide what steps I might be able to take to get it up and running. Thanks !!

I did already above: viewtopic.php?p=60328#p60328
You posted about trying to install arbitrary zoom packages of which you don't even mention where you got them from so people cannot even try to reproduce that.

I'm running zoom meeting binary at mageia 7.1 without (apparent) problems.
Hope this helps someone else.

Downloaded binary from https://zoom.us/download. There one sees "Type of Linux" where I choose "other Linux OS" then
choose options "64 bits" and "gcc 4.7+" and dowload.

Installation consists of

$ ark zoom_x86_64.tar.xz

and extract it somewhere.

To be able to run it I had to create a LD_LIBRARY_PATH pointing to the zoom libraries directory:
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:zoom

Then, upon launching the binary at the zoom directory, one may see an error message on the lack of a library (sorry, don't remember the name). I've open MCC and looked for packages by file names and insert this library main name.

That's all.

I'm not a linux guru. Some of the steps above may not be necessary but I could not have video support if I don't create that LIBRARY_PATH to the zoom directory...

To allow zoom binary to be launched from an application link at Desktop area, I've created a shell like this:

Code: Select all

#/bin/bash
cd /path_to_zoom_directory/
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:zoom
cd zoom
./zoom

to be called from a Desktop link.

Instead of posting to an old thread, maybe use the search function next time. You should be able to install zoom as an rpm or via flatpak, both are not that difficult.

My query was by google and that was what came first...

It seems Mageia has not a zoom (this zoom) native rpm. The alien rpm ( urpmi --nodeps ...) and flatpak are something I would like to avoid if I can ...
