AppImage not working on RHEL8

[mmoelle1]

I am trying to install the AppImage version on RHEL 8.9 (Ootpa). When running ownCloud-5.2.1.13040-x86_64.AppImage I encounter the following error:

/tmp/.mount_ownClow4u3lK/AppRun.wrapped: error while loading shared libraries: libOpenGL.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Any help is appreciated.

It seems like you’re encountering an error related to missing shared libraries when trying to run the ownCloud AppImage on RHEL 8.9. The error message indicates that the “libOpenGL.so.0” library cannot be found.

To resolve this issue, you’ll need to ensure that the required OpenGL libraries are installed on your system. Here’s how you can do it:

1. Check OpenGL Library Availability: First, verify whether the “libOpenGL.so.0” library is available on your system. You can search for it using the following command:

bashCopy code

find /usr/lib /usr/local/lib -name 'libOpenGL.so.0*'

If the library is not found, you’ll need to install it.

2. Install OpenGL Libraries: On RHEL 8.9, you can install the OpenGL libraries using the following command:

Copy code

sudo yum install mesa-libGL

This command will install the Mesa OpenGL library, which should include the required “libOpenGL.so.0” library.

3. Run the AppImage: Once the OpenGL libraries are installed, try running the ownCloud AppImage again:

bashCopy code

./ownCloud-5.2.1.13040-x86_64.AppImage

Hopefully, with the required OpenGL libraries installed, you should no longer encounter the “libOpenGL.so.0” error and be able to run the ownCloud AppImage successfully on your RHEL 8.9 system.
