Cause
In this example the library is called librsawa_apache.so. The output shows that libxerces-c-3.1.so was not found.

Resolution
- Check the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable has been set up correctly so the Apache 2.x web server can locate the library libxerces-c-3.1.so.
The library libxerces-c-3.1.so resides in the <APACHE_HOME>/rsawebagent folder.
- Restart the Apache 2.x web server and review the Apache error log for further messages.
