[image] WuSiren: didn’t find any julia related path. Not only Julia related paths can cause problems, but any folder that contains any of these libraries: ufechner@ufryzen:~/.julia/juliaup/julia-1.10.10+0.x64.linux.gnu/lib/julia$ ls libamd.so libgcc_s.so.1 …

Can you share the output of: using Pkg Pkg.status() ? And the output of versioninfo() ?

Now I might have figured out what the problem is. It could be because I used a portable version of Julia 1.10. When I used another installation version of 1.11, everything worked fine.

You deleted the LD_LIBRARY_PATH in your reply, but it could also be the reason for your failure. You could try to set it to an empty string.

Ah, I think it’s too lengthy. What is this for? I see that it involves many paths. If it is set to be empty, will it cause any bad consequences?

When loading shared libraries, the OS looks in the folders in this path first. The libraries Julia needs are, for example, in this directory: /.julia/juliaup/julia-1.10.10+0.x64.linux.gnu/lib/julia If the same libraries are - in a slightly different version - in any of the folders in LD_LIBRARY_P…

It makes sense. Thank you very much. But I checked the paths in LD_LIBRARY_PATH carefully and didn’t find any julia related path.

It seems you are right, @ufechner7 . Thank you very much! :handshake: But, after I typed ENV["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"]="", I add CUDA and using CUDA again, and the same error also occurred. And, do I have to execute ENV["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"]="" every time I restart Julia?

[image] WuSiren: And, do I have to execute ENV["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"]="" every time I restart Julia? I would add export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="" to .bashrc if you have this file in your home folder. This might break other tools you use, though. Or you add alias jl='export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=""; julia' …

Given various issues, I have decided to abandon using a portable version of Julia while an installation version of Juliaup is in existence. I found that if there are two Julia versions with the same version number, even if one is installed via Juliaup and the other is a binary file, the latter’s pac…
