Import ROOT not working after installing Anaconda

Hi,

My root version is 6.06/06. Earlier Its working fine but when I installed Anaconda so after that I realized that I am not able to do “from ROOT import TH1F”. Whenever I does this is complains me

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/home/ramkrishna/ROOT/v6-06-06/lib/ROOT.py", line 24, in <module>
    import cppyy
  File "/home/ramkrishna/ROOT/v6-06-06/lib/cppyy.py", line 60, in <module>
    import libPyROOT as _backend
ImportError: /home/ramkrishna/anaconda2/bin/../lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.20' not found (required by /home/ramkrishna/ROOT/v6-06-06/lib/libPyROOT.so)

Python version installed in my laptop is Python 2.7.13 .

Please let me know how I can fix this?

with regards,
Ram

Move Anaconda’s python out of the way, for instance by adjusting the $PATH.

Dear Axel,

Please let me know how I can do this?

I don’t know Anaconda. I’d suppose (as I wrote) that it’s injecting python into the $PATH environment variable. echo $PATH might tell you; then you have to export PATH=... (where ... is "everything but Anaconda) and then try again your from ROOT import TH1F.

Axel.
