I had the same problem, and it turned out I hadn't installed the library.

Answer 2

Here on a openSuse 12.3 the solution was installing the 32-bit version of libaio in addition. Oracle seems to need this now, although on 12.1 it run without the 32-bit version.

Answer 3

It looks like a 32/64 bit mismatch. The ldd output shows that mainly libraries from /lib64 are chosen. That would indicate that you have installed a 64 bit version of the Oracle client and have created a 64 bit executable. But libaio.so is probably a 32 bit library and cannot be used for your application.

So you either need a 64 bit version of libaio or you create a 32 bit version of your application.

Answer 4

Install the packages:

sudo apt-get install libaio1 libaio-dev

or

sudo yum install libaio

Answer 5

I'm having a similar issue.

I found

conda install pyodbc

is wrong!

when I use

apt-get install python-pyodbc

I solved this problem。

Answer 6

I had to do the following (in Kubuntu 16.04.3):

1. Install the libraries: sudo apt-get install libaio1 libaio-dev
2. Find where the library is installed: sudo find / -iname 'libaio.a' -type f --> resulted in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libaio.a
3. Add result to environment variable: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/lib/oracle/12.2/client64/lib:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu"
