2. If LD_LIBRARY_PATH/LIBPATH is not set to the environment or not sourced properly

Resolution

To overcome the issue, please follow below validations:

1. Need to set permissions to 755 so that execution is possible for the "other" category as well as the "group" and the owner:
   chmod 755 /opt/CA/SharedComponents/Csam/SockAdapter
   chmod 755 /opt/CA/SharedComponents/Csam/SockAdapter/lib
   
   
2. Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH/LIBPATH to source Shared Component libraries as well and export to the environment.
   LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/CA/SharedComponents/Csam/SockAdapter/lib
   export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
   
   
3. Restart SSA and application server to get the issue rectified.
