I am somewhat new to Linux world, so maybe this question may sound silly, but:

I am trying to run a program in a server with Linux Ubuntu 3.16.0-31-generic and it gives me the following error: error while loading shared libraries: libmpich.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I have searched through the internet to find a solution, and I see people talking about setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH somehow. Most of the ways to do it required sudo, but I don't have administrator permission, so I cannot use it.

Could you tell me if indeed this would solve the problem, and if yes, how could I set it?

Thank you!
