OS: Linux, specifically Ubuntu 14.04 (x86_64)
MM: 1.10.7, git 951
SM: 1.7.3, git 5290

I just moved to a new host, and whenever I try to compile any .SP's, I get this error.

./spcomp: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I noticed there is a libstdc++.so.6 in the force_install_dir's "bin" folder. Do I need to symlink that somewhere under sourcemod folders?

For example, for CS:GO installed to: /installfolder/, it created the usual /installfolder/csgo and installfolder/bin structure. Obviously, the SourceMod stuff is all installed under /installfolder/csgo/addons/sourcemod. In a command-line I am changing to /installfolder/csgo/addons/sourcemod/scripting and running ./compile.sh there.

I don't remember having to do anything special with the OS on the previous host to get this working, but then again that was years ago. Maybe I'm just getting old.

I am having the same problem with all games installed on this host (CS:GO, TF2, etc.). The existing pre-comiled .SMX plug-in's run fine, as does SRCDS obviously. I just can't compile anything new.

PS: lib32gcc1, gcc, and g++ are also already installed on the host (using apt-get install, etc.)

a) Just compile the plugins on your desktop.
or
b) Copy bin/libstdc++.so.6 next to spcomp.

It's like a choose your own adventure novel!

Thanks but, no (Linux) desktop - it's a remote rental VPS with SSH/PuTTy access.
Tried copying the libstdc++.so.6 from /installdirectory/bin to /installdirectory/csgo/addons/sourcemod/scripting (where spcomp is located), that results in the same error.

No, on your own computer - SMX binaries are platform-independent and portable.

I got it working. Just re-installed a bunch of GCC and related stuff. Not sure exactly which did it though. Now its just complaining for a few SP that its can't find smlib.

For reference in case this happens again: try installing lib32stdc++6. Travis (which also runs Ubuntu x64) used to run into the same error and lib32stdc++6 had to be installed to fix it.

Yeah, that might have been one of the packages I reinstalled.
