After installing the program nod32 antivirus in ubuntu 12.04 I got this error every time I opened the console.

ERROR: ld.so: object 'libesets_pac.so' from /etc/ld.so.preload cannot be preloaded: ignored.

You can try to do this (from this page in Russian):

Open /etc/ld.so.preload
```
sudo nano -w /etc/ld.so.preload
```
and delete the row libesets_pac.so and save it.
Open /etc/rc.local
```
sudo nano -w /etc/rc.local
```
and just enter the line /opt/eset/esets/sbin/esets_daemon and save, after restarting the system.

This should solve your problem.

In case the libesetspac.so was the only line in ld.so.preload should I leave the file empty? or delete the file? – michel.iamit May 14 '14 at 09:04

@michel.iamit I just removed the entry and saved the file. Also, I didn't need to do anything with /etc/rc.local as it didn't exist. I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 x64 with ESET NOD32 Antivirus 4 v4.0.90.0. – Daniel Eagle Aug 08 '18 at 00:51

This seemed to have fixed that issue for me on Ubuntu 11.10 x64

sudo vi /etc/ld.so.preload

change libesets_pac.so to /opt/eset/esets/lib/libesets_pac.so

Save and your error should stop.

This didn't work for me running Ubuntu 18.04 x64. See my comment under OmegaEvil's answer. – Daniel Eagle Aug 08 '18 at 00:53
Worked for me on Ubuntu 18.04 x64 with ESET NOD32 Antivirus 4.0.93. I only encountered the described error in case I used sudo. all other commands and terminal open worked just fine without the warning. – sebisnow Nov 25 '19 at 11:27

I'm running ubuntu 18.04 with NOD32, after installing Gcloud SDK the message appeared for every action related to the gcloud/kubectl commands.

I've tried replacing the entry with : /opt/eset/esets/lib/libesets_pac.so

Saved the entry and restarted the system, did not work. Removing the entry completely on ubuntu 18.04 x64 solved the issue.

Hope it helps.

From the preload message , I believe you're installing the wrong architecture.

But if you're on a x64 system , it's unavoidable , since you could be running 32bit programs as well , so esets installs both architecture , which made 64bits program can't preload the 32bit library , 32bit's program can't load 64bit library.

The only way to get rid of this , is make all your system 32bits.

I had the same problem with Linux Mint 17.3. I used the solution given here: Open /etc/ld.so.preload, open this well

sudo nano -w /etc/ld.so.preload

and delete the row libesetspac.so and save, after. Open /etc/rc.local, open this well

sudo nano -w /etc/rc.local

and just enter the line /opt/eset/esets/sbin/esets_daemon and save, after restarting the system. Good luck--this should solve your problem.

Then the problem with the preload errors was solved.

Then I tested if eset was still working by creating the EICAR.COM virus:

Start a text editor. Enter the text:

X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*

Save as EICAR.COM this should be recognised as a virus, but it wasn't.

The correct solution is:

Edit /etc/ld.so.preload as super user and change:

libesets_pac.so

to:

/opt/eset/esets/lib/libesets_pac.so

Save the file and the library will be preloaded for new processes. You should restart the system to make it active for all processes.

Source: https://forum.eset.com/topic/7097-log-in-show-ldso-object-libesets-pacso-from-etcldsopreload-cannot-be-preloaded-ignored/

Now I tested again if the creation of the EICAR.COM virus would be recognised and action would be taken and it was.

Following lines, fixed the problem for me. Solution seems simple and logical as well:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 //ads architecture information
sudo apt-get update //update
sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 //install the lib
sudo reboot // restart required
