Installing Cisco AnyConnect on CentOS 7

7

1

I have installed Cisco AnyConnect on CentOS 7. When I try to connect I get an error:

/opt/cisco/anyconnect/bin/vpndownloader: error while loading shared libraries: libpangox-1.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I've Googled it, but there is no valid solution to this problem.

Does anybody use Cisco AnyConnect on CentOS 7 and know how to solve this issue?

It looks like Cisco AnyConnect requires pangox-compat. CentOS 7 does not ship with pangox, however it is in the EPEL (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux) repository. You should be able to run these two commands to install the missing package:

# yum install http://mirror.ancl.hawaii.edu/linux/epel/7/x86_64/e/epel-release-7-5.noarch.rpm

# yum install pangox-compat

Good luck!

Thanks Ben. Under Fedora 23, just using yum install pangox-compat pangox-compat-devel command worked. – Narendra – 2016-08-14T02:01:08.713

The package epel-release-7-5.noarch.rpm is not available anymore change the URL to 7-8.

This helped me locate libpangox on Ubuntu for the same issue. Thanks! – dotHTM – 2016-10-11T16:27:08.473
