The output of: ldd /usr/bin/openbox should say it is missing libobrender.so, libobparser.so, etc if not, then your problem isnt with libraries.
Otherwise, Open your console, become root, copy /usr/lib/libob* to /usr/lib64/, remove libob* in /usr/lib/ folder...
the following commands should do the trick(careful with the wildcards):
1.) su
2.) cp /usr/lib/libob* /usr/lib64/
3.) rm /usr/lib/libob*
Shouldn't give you any more trouble, careful with the wildcards (as always).
Hours of fiddling suddenly solved with 3 lines :-)
Oh, and if you were getting errors for missing apps as well, then you might want to comment out those lines in your /etc/xdg/openbox/autostart.sh
Enjoy OpenBox v3.4 :-)
