Hello,
I am using compiled UDF on IBM/AIX platform. After I add the file and click "build".
I get the following error information:
"
make: The error code from the last command is 2
stop.
"
Can anyone know what could cause the error?
Thank you.

I do not know what UDF is, I do know make, and config processes.

Most frequently an error message from make means it was compiling, or linking a file, and the compiler or linker reported an error.

To really help you one would need more than just the last gasp from the make command.

Thank you for your reply.
It is great that you know make, and config processes
I use the compiled UDF. When I review the makelog file, it shows

"/bin/shell/ cc: not found",

does it mean FLUENT can not find the compiler?

[rootvg]

Yes. And possibly because no compiler is installed.

There are basically two compilers for AIX. Either gcc or IBM prodict called xlC and vac (and vacpp for C++).

If the IBM compiler is installed you need to add /usr/vac/bin and/or /usr/vacpp/bin to your PATH variable.

From the command line:
PATH=${PATH}:/usr/vac/bin:/usr/vacpp/bin
export PATH

For gcc it is probably:
PATH=${PATH}:/usr/local/bin
export PATH

Also take a look at my AIX portal - http://www.rootvg.net - 9 years of public support.

Thank you for your reply.

I think your answer is to the point. But the gcc compiler's command is gcc, not cc. Why does it show "cc: not found"?

[rootvg]

I would need to see the build script to see that.

make is looking for a compiler - so it says it cannot find cc: in in's error message.

a script, usually named configure, is run on a new platform to create the makefile.

In amy case - I mention gcc as a compiler because that is a very common compiler on linux/unix systems. I am assuming that whoever, or whatever, created/wrote the input file to the command make (the Makefile usually) knows this.

I dont have a compiler installed on my current system (the first lslpp command, but I do have runtime support installed (second command)).

Generally yhe gcc compier is packaged as an rpm. use rpm -q -a to see what is installed using rpm

michael@x054:[/data/home/michael]rpm -q -a
cdrecord-1.9-7
mkisofs-1.13-4
AIX-rpm-6.1.3.0-1
tcl-8.3.3-1
tk-8.3.3-1
expect-5.32-1

Again, no compiler.
