How to fix fatal error: zlib.h: no such file or directory?

People also ask

Can not find zlib H?

You have installed the library in a non-standard location ( $HOME/zlib/ ). That means the compiler will not know where your header files are and you need to tell the compiler that. You can add a path to the list that the compiler uses to search for header files by using the -I (upper-case i) option.

What is zlib H?

The 'zlib' compression library provides in-memory compression and. decompression functions, including integrity checks of the uncompressed data. This version of the library supports only one compression method (deflation) but other algorithms will be added later and will have the same stream. interface.


You should install the development support files for zlib, try:

sudo apt-get install libz-dev

Other package names: zlib1g-dev.

If you've already zlib library, make sure you're compiling your code sources with -lz. See: missing zlib.h in ubuntu.


Install zlib from it's source, solve my similar error. Download last version from this then:

configure
make -j4
make install
