xrdp error: undefined symbol: freerdp_get_version about xrdp HOT 3 CLOSED

Are you using the release FreeRDP 1.0.0 or 1.0.1?
Do an ldd on /usr/local/lib/xrdp/libxrdpfreerdp1.so and see if it's linking to another libxrdpfreerdp1.so.

from xrdp.

I have the same issue. Compiled FreeRDP and Xrdp from the default branch.

The problem is caused by incorrect configure when compiling the source code.
There should be build documentation with the source code.

You can resolved it by doing this:

First, download freerdp source code, unzip the files to [FreeRDP_DIR], For exmaple, /download/freerdp.
And download xrdp source code and unzip it to [XRDP_DIR], , For exmaple, /download/xrdp.

Now, compile freerdp and install it.

cd [FreeRDP_DIR]
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DWITH_CUPS=OFF -DWITH_FFMPEG=OFF -DWITH_XKBFILE=OFF -DWITH_XV=OFF -DWITH_ALSA=OFF
make
make install

Then，compile xrdp and libxrdpfreerdp1 module. Make sure to configure xrdp with correct FREERDP_LIBS and FREERDP_CFLAGS.
Or you will get "undefined symbol: freerdp_get_version" when you run xrdp.

cd [XRDP_DIR]
./bootstrap
./configure FREERDP_LIBS="-lfreerdp-core -L[XRDP_DIR]/build/libfreerdp-core" FREERDP_CFLAGS=-I[XRDP_DIR]/include
make
make install
cd freerdp1
make
make install

And then test xrdp:

xrpd -nodaemon
OR
/etc/xrdp/xrdp.sh start

from xrdp.
