I am trying to set the environmental variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the directly i am currently working on.

This is the command which i gave.

 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

In response, i received the following error. 

 LD_LIBRARY_PATH: Undefined variable.

The main purpose of the command is to set the library path as the current working directory since i am not granted a super admin power to copy my files in the usr/lib folder.

How to solve this

It means that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not set in your env. Try

setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH .

    you don't need to run any export command. Just setenv is enough.
