can't launch settings in centos 7?

The error you experienced states that libwbclient is not locatable, usually this means that it is not installed, try installing it with the following (as root):

yum install libwbclient

Should you see the message Package libwbclient already installed and latest version. Then you may need to reinstall it with:

yum reinstall libwbclient

      Please can you take a look at How do I ask a good question. We need additional information to provide support, such as; What exactly you try to do (run a command or click a button)? What you've tried & tested will also help narrow down the cause for the issues you're experiencing.

      It's freshly installed I was wondering if theres a way to launch it from the terminal maybe it'll dump an err or any useful output !

      From the command line you can launch the settings with gnome-control-center, I found this command from a quick Google. If you could launch that from a terminal and then paste the command output into your initial question so we can start building up details regarding this issue.

    Which user are you running the gnome command as (root or your own user)?

    I've updated my answer with an additional step to try, could you give that a go and then let me know if it works.
