Hello,
I'm trying to run ejabberd on Centos 6. I followed the steps in doc but an error keeps showing. For some reason, library libyaml-0.so.2 is failing to load. Here it is where libyaml-0.so.2 is located at:
[root@ip-10-72-132-52 ~]# find / -name libyaml-0.so.2 -exec ls -l '{}' \;
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 18 Oct 18 12:22 /tmp/yaml-0.1.4/src/.libs/libyaml-0.so.2 -> libyaml-0.so.2.0.2
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 29 Nov 6 10:25 /usr/lib/libyaml-0.so.2 -> /usr/local/lib/libyaml-0.so.2

lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 18 Nov 5 11:59 /usr/local/lib/libyaml-0.so.2 -> libyaml-0.so.2.0.2Now, the error when I run "ejabberdctl live":
[root@ip-10-72-132-52 ~]# ejabberdctl live

`ldd p1_yaml.so` will give
`ldd p1_yaml.so` will give you more information on where the linker is trying to search for libyaml-0.so.2.

Is there any option at the time of compiling that I can use to tell where these library?
Thank you.

Experiencing exactly the same problem. Were you able to solve it?
this is because ejabberd
this is because ejabberd cannot find the file libyaml-0.so.2, just copy this file to some place that ejabberd can visit (ubuntu ex: /lib/x86_64/-linux-gnu/libyaml-0.so.2). it is better to solve this by set some environment variables, tell me if you find how to do this. thank you!
I solved it running the
I solved it running the installation process all over again (including dependencies). Not sure yet why this was happening.
