ImportError: libcusolver.so.8.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Possible duplicate of this question. I have a gpu account to whom I connect through putty (ssh login). I have created a virtualenv there and I am installing tenorflow through pip for gpu. Everything works fine, when I run command 

$ pip list

following list is being shown: 

 backports.weakref (1.0rc1)
 bleach (1.5.0)
 funcsigs (1.0.2)
 html5lib (0.9999999)
 Markdown (2.6.8)
 mock (2.0.0)
 numpy (1.13.1)
 olefile (0.44)
 pbr (3.1.1)
 Pillow (4.2.1)
 pip (9.0.1)
 protobuf (3.3.0)
 setuptools (36.0.1)
 six (1.10.0)
 tensorflow-gpu (1.2.1)
 Werkzeug (0.12.2)
 wheel (0.29.0)

But when I run:

$ python
>>> import tensorflow

It shows the following error:

  Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/home/nauman/junaid/final/test/lib/python2.7/site-

  Failed to load the native TensorFlow runtime.
  See https://www.tensorflow.org/install/install_sources#common_installation_problems
  for some common reasons and solutions.  Include the entire stack trace
  above this error message when asking for help.

I have also set my environment variables like this:

  export CUDA_HOME=/opt/cuda
  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$CUDA_HOME/lib64:$CUDA_HOME/extras/CUPTI/lib64"

Moreover, I found that libcusolver.so.8.0 is not there, while libcusolver.so.7.5 is there in cuda/lib64/. Somehow tensorflow is finding wrong file or I ain't know nothing. Any help would be appreciated as I am new to all this stuff. Python version: 2.7 OS: Linux

This may be connected to the incorrect linking of your libraries.
Simply run sudo ldconfig /usr/local/cuda/lib64. It solved for me.

If you need to know more: ldconfig man page.

If you are using cuda-9.0 try sudo apt install nvidia-cuda-dev (if you are using an Ubuntu distribution)

If you installed tensorflow-gpu by using pip with prebuilt .whl, the cuda version were fixed. As far as I know, starting 0.11.0rc1, all the prebuilt packages are now built for cuda 8. So there are two ways to solve the problem:

  1. install cuda 8 for the prebuilt packages tensorflow-gpu >= 0.11.orc1
  2. keep cuda 7.5 stay, then build tensorflow-gpu from source code

I solved the issue. Actually I have cuda 7.5 installed and I was installing latest tensorflow version which probably support cuda 8.0. So I downgraded. 

 pip install --upgrade \ https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/linux/gpu/tensorflow-0.10.0-cp27-none-linux_x86_64.whl
