HI. I have a user testing COBOL program and upon execution they are getting an error because the runtime cannot find the file libcob.4.dynlib. See attached screenshot.
Can anyone advise. I don't have access to his Mac so i'll need to troubleshoot remotly so any guidance will be great.
Thank you!
It seems that your application uses/used the homebrew environment and this isn't setup on the user-side.
The easiest option would be to ask him to install homebrew and then run brew install gnucobol. An alternative option is to build the GnuCOBOL binaries again with an own --prefix and using this for building the application, then distribute both.
