Problem accessing libctransformers.so

[Ajayvenki]

I am trying to dockerize a LLM (Mistral) on my local laptop using Ctransformers. For some reason I am noticing a weird error below. However, the same is not happening If I run the model locally in my laptop. Could you let me know if there is any compatibility issues with mistral LLM and ctransformers. I am using python version 3.12 and I tried with all other version. Nothing is working. Your help will be much appreciated.

Traceback (most recent call last):
