Installation on Ubuntu --> Elementary OS Luna

pdave · September 1, 2013, 21:36

It seems like OpenFoam is supported on a number of distributions but I am not able to get any installation code to work on my distribution.

Of course, this is a debian based system.

What I am having the most difficulty is installing the openmpi library. I would rather not download the .deb files individually. Is there a repository that I can access for this?

Greetings pdave and welcome to the forum!

We could use a bit more information, such as:

How exactly are you trying to install OpenFOAM? From source code or from Deb package?
Which repositories do you currently have turned on?
Your version of Elementary OS, it's based on which version of Ubuntu and/or Debian?
If you don't know based on which version it is, then which version of Elementary OS are you using?

Best regards,
Bruno
