Are you going to install a source pack or a debain pack?
|
Dear sir,
i will import mesh from gambit to openfoam and process. I myself do not know the difference between source and debain pack. |
if you have ubuntu :),
you need to go to this page http://www.openfoam.org/download/ubuntu.php and follow commands line by line :) just be connected to Internet :D it will download and install OpenFOAM by itself |
E: Unable to locate package openfoam211
each time i get same error message..:( |
could you describe what step you did one by one?
|
Good evening
If you downloaded from http://www.openfoam.org/download/source.php then you must follow the instructions shown in the same page (even for Ubuntu). If you want OpenFOAM with a simpler (and faster) procedure but also without being able to modify it then you do what is described in http://www.openfoam.org/download/ubuntu.php |
Greetings to all!
@zaynah: There are at least two possibilities:
Code:
ping www.openfoam.org If you do have Internet connection, then you can try the following instructions: https://github.com/themiwi/OpenFOAM-Installer - it's a very simple script that does automatically for you the instructions shown for the Debian or RPM packages. Simply follow the instructions and you should be good to go! Best regards, Bruno |
hi burno,
i have checked and i have good internet connections. I have done as the link suggested in ur post. but each time i use openfoam do i have to run it all first?O.o |
Hi Zay Nah,
If you followed the instructions from here: https://github.com/themiwi/OpenFOAM-Installer - then it depends on the answer you gave to this question: Quote:
