libpulse.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Question

I am getting this error when trying to install a server. libpulse.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I run an ldd and there is the libpulse.so.0 but the script don't work with that

root@mas:~/Velneo-vServer# sudo sh ./vServer.sh -i
  ./vServer: error while loading shared libraries: libpulse.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Solution 1

You have the 64bit libpulse0, while the program you're trying to run is 32bit.

On 64bit Ubuntu you can install 32bit libraries by adding :i386 to the package name:

apt-get install libpulse0:i386

Solution 2

I tried all methods found, finally I fixed it by installing a package called pulseaudio:

sudo apt-get install pulseaudio
