Do you have libhdf5 installed? It's part of the hdf5 package.

Please run which ogrinfo and ldd /path/to/orginfo and post the output.

You need the libhdf5.so.6 file. It's part of hdf5.

Can just you run yum install hdf5 ?

Also you may have need to add your hdf5 library path to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

When I do locate I get locate libhdf5 /usr/lib64/mpich2/lib/libhdf5.so.6 /usr/lib64/mpich2/lib/libhdf5.so.6.0.4 /usr/lib64/mpich2/lib/libhdf5_fortran.so.6 /usr/lib64/mpich2/lib/libhdf5_fortran.so.6.0.4 /usr/lib64/mpich2/lib/libhdf5_hl.so.6 /usr/lib64/mpich2/lib/libhdf5_hl.so.6.0.4 /usr/lib64/mpich2/lib/libhdf5hl_fortran.so.6 /usr/lib64/mpich2/lib/libhdf5hl_fortran.so.6.0.4 – Mukesh Yadav Feb 02 '13 at 13:44

You just need to install hdf5. See above. – ewwhite Feb 02 '13 at 14:00
It still says libhdf5.so.6 => not found when I do ldd :( – Mukesh Yadav Feb 02 '13 at 14:12

Did you install hdf5? – ewwhite Feb 02 '13 at 14:21
Yes `Package hdf5-1.8.7-1.el6.rf.x86_64 already installed and latest version Nothing to do` – Mukesh Yadav Feb 04 '13 at 07:07

Maybe the database file /etc/ld.so.cache wasn't updated automatically try run ldconfig as root and see if it works now
