CUDNN 7.1 installation issues on Ubuntu 16.04

I have just installed Cuda 9.2 (apparently without problems), and then CUDA, and the MNIST test fails at compile time, as below - looks like an include file issue, but I don’t know where to begin…

I have resolved with these command:

Navigate to your directory containing the cuDNN unzipped

sudo cp -P include/cudnn.h /usr/local/cuda-9.2/include
sudo cp -P lib64/libcudnn* /usr/local/cuda-9.2/lib64/
sudo chmod a+r /usr/local/cuda-9.2/lib64/libcudnn*

I had to use:

sudo cp -P usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcudnn* /usr/local/cuda-9.2/lib64/
for my second line
