Quick answer: Run:

./Allwmake > make.log 2>&1
gzip < make.log > make.log.gz

Then attach the file "make.log.gz" to your next post. Because the error messages that you provided do not describe the actual origin of the problem.

Thanks for the reply I am attaching my make file with the message.

Hi Dear FOMERS,
In OpenFOAM-2.4.x during installation I am getting Following Errors.

In member function ‘int STLASCIILexer::lex()’:
Make/linux64Gcc48DPOpt/STLsurfaceFormatASCII.C:5521:9: error: no match for ‘operator=’ (operand types are ‘std::istream {aka std::basic_istream<char>}’ and ‘std::istream* {aka std::basic_istream<char>*}’)
Make/linux64Gcc48DPOpt/STLsurfaceFormatASCII.C:5521:9: note: candidate is:

     class basic_istream : virtual public basic_ios<_CharT, _Traits>
           ^

I have tried by all possible ways I know. Please send your suggetions if/any.
Regards.

Quick answer: The first error message is this one:

Make/linux64Gcc48DPOpt/STLsurfaceFormatASCII.C: In member function ‘int STLASCIILexer::lex()’:
Make/linux64Gcc48DPOpt/STLsurfaceFormatASCII.C:5521:9: error: no match for ‘operator=’ (operand types are ‘std::istream {aka std::basic_istream<char>}’ and ‘std::istream* {aka std::basic_istream<char>*}’)
    yyin = & std::cin;
         ^

This is a rather strange error message, that I can't remember seeing before.

I need to know two details:

1. What does the following command give you?
   

   flex --version

2. Which Linux Distribution and version are you using?

Dear Bruno.
Thanks for all support
I am having multiple FOAM versions but I have sepreated them in bashrc files as per your blogs. I guess it is flex erro, usually when I try to recomplie any version I get errro of libfl.so.2 and libfl.so not found. How can I fix this ?? I have used LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib: already.

Hi Atul,

I suggest that you do not do that manually. That might be the reason why you're not able to build OpenFOAM properly.

Did you install flex manually (from source code) or did you install it using yum?

What do you get when you run the following command?

locate libfl.so

Best regards,
Bruno

[atulkjoy]

$locate libfl.so
/home/atulkjoy/FDS/FDS6/bin/LIB64/libfl.so.2
/usr/local/lib/libfl.so
/usr/local/lib/libfl.so.2
/usr/local/lib/libfl.so.2.0.0
Yes I have tried Flex 2.6.0 by source Code for FDS but flex --version returns the same line still
$flex --version
2.5.35
I have used YUM for upgrading flex

[wyldckat]

Quick answer: Sorry for the late reply, but I only managed to take a look into this now.

The "libfl.so" is not needed for OpenFOAM. The problem you're having with Flex is really strange, but perhaps the following will solve the problem. Please run the following commands:

#Go into OpenFOAM's main source folder
cd $WM_PROJECT_DIR
 
#Change how the flex version is checked
find src applications -name "*.L" -type f | xargs sed -i -e 's=\(YY\_FLEX\_SUBMINOR\_VERSION\)=YY_FLEX_MINOR_VERSION < 6 \&\& \1='

Then try building OpenFOAM again, by running:

./Allwmake > log.make 2>&1
