I am trying to use suricata 6.0.0 on Centos7.8 and while running getting this error 🙂

`/usr/bin/suricata: error while loading shared libraries: libhtp.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory`

i can see the library on /usr/lib folder  
`lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 15 Oct 19 16:32 libhtp.so.2 -> libhtp.so.2.0.0`

Can you guide me to fix this.

Thank you In Advance !!!

You probably just need to run `sudo ldconfig`. Typically I haven’t seen this requirement on CentOS, but its not an uncommon thing to need to do in Linux-world.

It could that your device does not support the flag Suricata is trying to set. Did Suricata exit? Or keep running?
