LibXrender missing when following binary installation with Anaconda

Open soldrevet opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

Following installation instructions 3.2.1 (https://reactionmechanismgenerator.github.io/RMG-Py/users/rmg/installation/anacondaUser.html), I get the following error on first run of rmg.py

File "/root/anaconda3/envs/rmg_env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/rdkit/Chem/init.py", line 24, in from rdkit.Chem.rdmolops import * ImportError: libXrender.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I solved the issue by some guesswork and installing libXrender via the following command with my rmg_env activated:

conda install -c conda-forge xorg-libxrender

Now I execute the minimum input file just fine. I hope my message is of use.


I'm very new to RMG and GitHub, so feel free to redirect me if there is a more appropriate way to deliver the message above. I am super appreciative of the RMG team - you have amazing documentation and videos.
