I tried the script on my 32 bit machine with success.
So first of all! Thanks a lot Jure! But compiling QT 4.3.5 take a lot of time. My thoughts were to use (libqt4xx) comment wget 4 QT 4.3.5 download and put some more debs to aptitude libqt4-dev qt4-dev-tools libqt4-opengl-dev in the script, that would install QT 4.4 modify "CMakeLists.txt" => comment the line: 94 as described in http://www.cfd-online.com/cgi-bin/OpenFOAM_Discus/show.cgi?tpc=126&post=24573#POST245 73 and use the rest of the install script as before |

Jure,
I use SUSE10 SP1 and do not have sudo and apitude packages. I guess these two are not for SUSE. Is there another way that I can go around so I can install OpenFOAM on my server? By the way, it is a Sun server using AMD64 processors. Thanks, Yongsheng |
Dear Lian,
sudo is part of
Dear Lian,
sudo is part of all distributions, and SUSE installs it by default. You can check with: rpm -qa sudo However it is easier to use "su", so that you have to insert root's password only once. The command line interface for the package manager o is "rug", and the syntax to install packages is: rug in <package_name> You might want to check if you have "zypper", that was introduced in openSUSE 10.2, and probably also in SLE 10 with SP1. The syntax is the same: zypper in <package_name> but it does not rely on the ZENWorks daemon, making it more efficient. I hope this helps, Alberto |
Hi Alberto,
Thank you for
Hi Alberto,
Thank you for the response I checked with our system administrator and he knows suse but not others. So follow the instruction in the INSTALL of OPENFOAM-1.5. We almost get there but get error message like /usr/local/bin/ld: cannot find -lfiniteVolume collect2: ld returned 1 exit status It seems that this is a common error. I am not sure whether there is a solution. I use SUSE10, sp1. gcc4.3.1 cmake 2.4--patch 6 ld --2.18 I compiled all these over the weekend and the installation still does not work. Maybe should switch to others. Thanks, Yongsheng |
I don't think the distribution
I don't think the distribution is the problem (I have SUSE 10 too), but a library path problem. Is the OF bashrc sourced correctly?
You might want to try the easy way of using the third party tools (compiler, cmake, ...) provided by OpenCFD. Regards, Alberto |
Alberto,
I compile the so
Alberto,
I compile the source code using the binary version of the Thirdparty package. When I compile the code, it has the same error. /usr/bin/ld cannot find lfiniteVolume. So I installed sudo but cannot install aptitude on my SUSE. If I do not have apitude, how can I use the script posted here? Thanks, Yongsheng |
You don't need the script post
You don't need the script posted here to install OpenFOAM 1.5 on your system. That script is specific for Ubuntu.
The error you obtain is not related to the fact you don't have aptitude, but to a wrong setting in your paths. First of all, you need to install QT 4.3.5, and being a SLE 10 user, you're lucky, because you can install the pre-packaged RPM offered on the Novell buildservice, without conflicts with newer versions. Simply add this repository to your installation sources in YaST: http://download.opensuse.org/reposit...:/Qt43/SLE_10/ and then install libqt4-devel-4.3.5-2.1.i586.rpm and libqt4-4.3.5-2.1.i586.rpm After that, simply follow the installation instructions provided by OpenCFD in their package, and you will be able to compile OpenFOAM. - Create a directory called OpenFOAM in your home - Obtain the source from the git repository, so you have the latest updated version. - Extract the third party package. - Run ./Allwmake in the main directory ~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5.x I hope this helps.

Of course, if you work on a 64 bit platform, use the 64-bit RPMS for Qt.

Hi,
I just installed Ubuntu
Hi,
I just installed Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Desktop Edition for the first time on my new Dell Latitude D430 Laptop with Intel Core 2 Duo U7700 (64 bit) CPUs. I used the script provided by Jure (thanks!), but I would like to add a couple of comments that might help others who are trying to do the same. First of all, in order to be able to use the script in a freshly installed Ubuntu distribution you must first download all the packages (APT). Otherwise the sudo and aptitude will not work. I guess that this is what Jure was trying to tell me, but I'm too fresh with linux installations to understand this completely. The script by Jure worked nicely until the buildParaView3.3-cvs. Then I had the following error message: -------------------------------------------- -- Check for working C compiler: /home/hani/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/gcc-4.3.1/platforms/linux64/bin/gcc -- broken CMake Error: The C compiler "/home/hani/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/gcc-4.3.1/platforms/linux64/bin/gcc" is not able to compile a simple test program. It fails with the following output: /usr/bin/make -f CMakeFiles/cmTryCompileExec.dir/build.make CMakeFiles/cmTryCompileExec.dir/build make[1]: Entering directory `/home/hani/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/ParaView3.3-cvs/platforms/linux64Gcc/CMakeFiles/ CMakeTmp' /home/hani/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/cmake-2.4.6/platforms/linux64/bin/cmake -E cmake_progress_report /home/hani/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/ParaView3.3-cvs/platforms/linux64Gcc/CMakeFiles/C MakeTmp/CMakeFiles 1 make[1]: /home/hani/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/cmake-2.4.6/platforms/linux64/bin/cmake: Command not found make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/cmTryCompileExec.dir/testCCompiler.o] Error 127 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/hani/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/ParaView3.3-cvs/platforms/linux64Gcc/CMakeFiles/ CMakeTmp' make: *** [cmTryCompileExec/fast] Error 2 CMake will not be able to correctly generate this project. -------------------------------------------- This problem was solved by sourcing the OpenFOAM bashrc file in order to use the gcc-2.4.6 distributed with OpenFOAM. However, for some reason it was necessary to comment out the cmake part of the OpenFOAM-1.5/etc/apps/paraview3/bashrc so that the system cmake (version 2.4-patch 7) was used instead of the one distributed with OpenFOAM. Don't ask me why, but perhaps someone else knows why. Then I was able to continue with the rest of the script by Jure successfully. Good luck with your installations! Håkan. |
Thank both. Here is what I did
Thank both. Here is what I did.
1: I reloaded the SUSE10 SP1 on the server. (I am afraid that I messed up some files) 2: install qmake4.3.5 3: install gmp4.2.2 (because when I compiled the OpenFOAM the makefile does not recognize the binary format of some libraries in the ThirdParty) 4: install mprf2.3.2 5: try to configure gcc4.3 However, I always get the waring message saying that Building GCC requires GMP 4.1+ and MPFR 2.3.0+. 6: I use > rpm -q mpfr and find that my mpfr/gmp are a lower version mpfr-2.2.1-6.6 Confused. Is anyone in US? Someone can send me his contact so I can call for some help? send email to y0lian05@louisville.edu. Thanks |

I stand corrected. Apparently there is an APT for RPM-based distributions:

Well, if you look closely, the script installs both firebird2-dev and firebird2.0-dev as well as libmpfr1 and libmpfr1ldbl, because Ubuntu and Debian name some of their packages differently. So ignore the errors, the appropriate packages still get installed.
