Yes, module opening is success. g_module_error() result has nothing
special. It works fine with functions, but I cannot access other
symbols (eg. variables).

You mean that g_module_symbol returned true but the pointer was not the string?

If so you had better post the whole of a short program that demonstrates the problem.
