Hi guys

I have tried a couple of days to install and compile the OpenFOAM-1.6-ext on my laptop. I didn't make it. There are two critical errors. Could someone post your successful Walkthrough of Install OpenFOAM-1.6-ext on OpenSUSE 12.1 64bit!

Thanks a lot!

[wyldckat]

Uhm... The walkthrough your asking for is already available in 1.6-ext, in the path "doc/buildInstructions/openSUSE/12.1/Compilation_openSUSE_12.1_64bit.txt".

You can see it online here: http://openfoam-extend.git.sourcefor...it.txt;hb=HEAD

It's not 100% correct, I did trying this one, but not succeed. Have you installed your 1.6-ext on OpenSUSE 12.1 64 bit?

I haven't tried it, but neither did you first reference that you had followed those instructions

What errors are you getting?

It happens in gcc and gzip.

[wyldckat]

OK, what are the first errors shown in "log.Allwmake"?

[wyldckat]

There is one step they didn't mention: after installing the system's Open-MPI, you have to log out and log back in. Otherwise it isn't known to the working session as to which mpirun to use.

[wyldckat]

OK, they are related. The first one should be fixed if you run as root (or with sudo):

zypper install -t pattern devel_C_C++

[iznal]

Ok, but actually I followed the tutorial from Martin Beaudoin. The OpenMPI in stage2 is not installed in my laptop. I used the OpenMPI direct from System. Would you like to see all the log files, I could send you, cause I don't know how to post them all.

If I'm not mistaken, it won't be necessary for me to see the logs
I'm trying the steps myself and so far from your feedback the following steps are missing in the walkthrough:

1. This needs to also be installed, to make sure that flex and other building utilities are installed:

   zypper install -t pattern devel_C_C++

2. The system Open-MPI will only be fully available if you log out and log back in.

[iznal]

Awesome! You are a big boss!
Any Ideas about this one?

[iznal]

You are right. The first error disappeared.

2. The system Open-MPI will only be fully available if you log out and log back in.

How to solve this issue? should I compile the OpenMPI with Allwmake.stage2?

[wyldckat]

Run AllMake.stage3 again.

If you can't log out and log back in, then let's try for now building OpenFOAM without logging out and back in.

[iznal]

I have ran AllMake.stage3 agian.
and sourced the . ~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext/etc/bashrc.
and ran the Allwmake. The error motionSolver.H comes out. Should I download it, and save in /home/yukaiyu/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext/src/dynamicMesh/dynamicMesh/lnInclude/

+ dynamicMesh/Allwmake

[wyldckat]

I have a feeling you better run the other stages as well, namely:

cd $WM_PROJECT_DIR/ThirdParty
./AllMake.stage1 >& log.AllMake.stage1 
./AllMake.stage4 >& log.AllMake.stage4

[iznal]

my log file contains no errors. But by doing the foamInstallationTest it shows a critical error.

Not to worry, that's an old bug in the diagnosis script

I think you're ready to start using 1.6-ext!
Have fun!

[mbeaudoin]

@the build instructions for OpenSUSE 12.1 64bit:
I just tested every single instructions of the build instructions I wrote for OpenSUSE 12.1 64bit using a brand new OpenSUSE 12.1 64bit system.
Everything compiled without a single glitch. No need for additional packages. The instructions provided are complete and sufficient.

@OpenMPI on OpenSUSE 12.1-64bit:
You don't have to logoff nor reboot your system after configuring and compiling OF 1.6-ext in order to run a parallel simulation using the system installed mpirun on OpenSUSE 12.1-64bit .
This is nonsense. And yes, I took the time to test this as well.

@error messages from 'foamInstallationTest':
Have you seen any mention of 'foamInstallationTest' in the build instructions?
You did not because running this script is not necessary.
As a matter of fact, I can't even remember the last time I invoked that rather useless script.

Martin

[wyldckat]

Martin,

I've updated the report: https://sourceforge.net/apps/mantisb...hp?id=149#c370
My apologies for not fully checking the instructions myself and delivered that complete log when I did the initial report.

Best regards,
Bruno
