OF 1.6-ext Repository offline?
 

Hi,

we would like to install OpenFoam 1.6-ext but since two days it is not possible to reach the repository. Does anybody know the reason? Is there another way to download OF Extend?

Best regards!

Hi all!

Do exist any mirror sources apart from sourceforge or any other means to download openfoam-1.6 extend ? I need a source-code version to be built then.

Thanx in advance!
Oleg

Greetings Oleg and welcome to the forum!

Here is one: https://github.com/ogoe/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext
But it's not complete... it only has the main branch.

edit on 2013-03-08: found another mirror, this one seems to be complete: http://repo.or.cz/w/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext.git

Best regards,
Bruno

Thanks, Bruno, for a quick reply!

The fact that it is not complete scares me a little :)
Is that worth the effort to install and compile or it is better to wait for the sourceforge version?
Are there any differences in the installation process? Can I use this guide http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/In...1.6-ext/Ubuntu to install github version?

Best regards,
Oleg

Hi Oleg,

The differences are only:

1. That git mirror version does not have all of the branches that the one at sf.net had. But the master branch is present as "sf/master", which is the default upon clone.
2. You can also use the following instructions, depending on the Ubuntu version you've got: https://github.com/ogoe/OpenFOAM-1.6...uctions/Ubuntu

Best regards,
Bruno

Thanks Bruno.

Only one of 1.6 -ext that I found was in the .iso to some conference in 2010.
The version you updated will will certainly be more useful :)

The version that I have found is uploaded here

[sorry for the server, but I am from czech rep. and I don't know, where to post it for your convenience :) ]

OOPS, what happened? How come ANSYS becomes interested in us?

I don't know. But I vaguely remember seeing sometime ago a service that searches on-line code for code that looks like your own in-house code.

Thank you very much, Bruno!

Successfully compiled OF-1.6-ext from the github repository and with the instructions you had shared !

Woohoo! :)

Have a good day,
Oleg

Shhh....be quiet

For those curious about why the Extend variants have been off-line: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...tml#post405401 post #4

edit: I've stick'ified this thread until the problem is solved.

wow, so does anyone know how long it will take (weeks, months?) until this legal issue is resolved?

(i would really like to check out the new solid mechanics features...)

Try asking for a mirror link for that branch here: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...-extend-3.html

About the "solidMechanics" branch:

is there a tar.gz file for 1.6-ext?
 

I cant download by git command.it doesn't find the server.is there a compressed file of OpenFOAM-1.6-ext for ubuntu 11.10?

im engaging to its download and wrote an complain to the isp thinking its their fault that it can't be downloaded!
it must be occur just when i wanted to download it.what a chance!
is there a tar.gz for complete 1.e-ext version? i want its compressible solvers.

Hi Ehsan,

You've got a link at post #7 and in the Github page (from post #4) you've got a button that says "ZIP", which gives this download link: https://github.com/ogoe/OpenFOAM-1.6.../sf/master.zip

Best regards,
Bruno

thanks.is its compilation like source?

Links to the instructions are on posts #5 and #6.
