Loading of library libASImage.so for TASImage failed in my environment

I installed per-compiled ROOT 6.24/02 in visual studio code with Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS and C/C++1.8.2

on my PC windows 11

I started using TH1F without any issue, but when I tried to create a simple histogram using TCanvas i got the error:

$ ./esercizio3.2 data.dat data.out***

***Media dei valori caricati tramite THF1: 30.2323***

***cling::DynamicLibraryManager::loadLibrary(): libtiff.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory***

***Error in <TInterpreter::TCling::AutoLoad>: failure loading library libASImage.so for TASImage***

***cling::DynamicLibraryManager::loadLibrary(): libtiff.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory***

*^C*

Loading of library libASImage.so for TASImage failed in my environment because TASImage is not present.

Is there a procedure to add it? I looked in forum for a solution but found nothing

Thanks

What are you doing in your macro ? it seems you are generating a tiff image .
Can you try with an other format ? for instance jpeg or png ?

I tried to save my Histogram in other format (jpeg), but the problem in above. It is present even i do not save the histrogram in histo.jpeg or histo.png . The histogram is not built at all, because missing lib

It is a bit unclear… are you using Ubuntu or Windows ?

On Ubuntu, try: sudo apt-get install libtiff5

On my PC windows I installed " visual studio code " with Ubuntu
Then I installed pre-compiled ROOT directly in Ubuntu as explained on ROOT site
Root is working except for the Histogram creation that fails due to the missing lib

I had already tried “sudo apt-get install libtiff.so.5” and “sudo apt-get install libtiff.so.3” (as suggested in the blog) but both failed because the missing lib could not be located.
I have tried “sudo apt-get upgrade”. Some upgrades were downloaded but when I tried again to install missing lib nothing changed.

The name of the missing package is “libtiff5”.

solved!
Thank you
