I am trying to run rMATS on a Linux (CentOS) cluster. On this system I do not have root access. I installed several of the rMATS dependency packages using the anaconda conda install package manager.

rMATS is unable to access a shared library libblas.so.3 on the system and throws an error rMATSexe: error while loading shared libraries: libblas.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Although I have located the libblas.so.3 library on my system /Users/paul/anaconda3/pkgs/lapack-3.6.1-1/lib/libblas.so.3 I am unsure how to make it accessible to the rMATS software as a "shared library".

I have tried export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Users/ranum/anaconda3/pkgs/lapack-3.6.1-1/lib/libblas.so.3 but this did not work.

Where can i put this libblas.so.3 library so that it can be found by the system?

LD_LIBRARY_PATH is a directory path not a file path. You want to set it like this: 

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Users/ranum/anaconda3/pkgs/lapack-3.6.1-1/lib
