Error while loading shared libraries: libXrender.so.1 on Linux

The error “Error while loading shared libraries: libXrender.so.1” occurs because the system is unable to find the shared library libXrender.so.1, which is needed to run a program.

To resolve this error, you can install the missing library by running the following command:

sudo apt-get install libxrender1

This will install the libXrender.so.1 library and its dependencies on your system.

If you are still encountering the error after installing the library, it is possible that the library path is not set in your environment variables. You can add the library path to the environment variables by running the following command:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

Replace /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu with the path to the directory where the libXrender.so.1 library is located on your system.

If the above steps do not resolve the error, please provide more details about your system and the program you are trying to run, as well as any additional error messages you may be encountering.
