Undefined symbol: crypto_vrf_publickeybytes only in systemd service

Looks like this issue was met before too.

Cardano-node: symbol lookup error: cardano-node: undefined symbol: crypto_vrf_publickeybytes

Hello, I have built cardano 1.17.0, but after running: cardano-node run –topology relay/mainnet_candidate_3-topology.json –database-path relay/db –socket-path relay/db/node.socket –host-addr xx.xx.xx.xx –port 3001 –config relay/mainnet_candidate_3-config.json I always get error: cardano-node: symbol lookup error: cardano-node: undefined symbol: crypto_vrf_publickeybytes Ofcourse I’m using my real ip instead of xx in host-addr xx.xx.xx.xx.

When you start as systemd, env vars are different from your current user (that launches the script).

Just realised that it doesn’t mean that env var is set. In your systemd definition, issue the env command too and save it somewhere and check if the LD_ is there.

You’re probably setup that env var in your bash_rc (or equivalent), systemd only uses or id, not your bash definition.

Thanks, that worked.
