Dear guys,
Even I've faced many of the same problems posted on this forum, but finally I've successfully compiled both the openfoam and paraview without any errors. In order to check my understanding and so called experiences, I've reinstalled the Opensuse 10.3 and openfoam today, also no erros. So I'd like to share some of the lessons with you.
Steps,
1. downloading the packages from the openfoam official website; for 32bit, I've 4 packages;
2. Decompressing these packages into the installation folder, I prefer the directory, home/<user-name>/OpenFOAM.
3. Following the readmefile in the folder and adding the line .$HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/etc/bashrc
4. Before doing the ./Allwmake command, you should check whether you've installed the GCC and QT correctly with proper version. using gcc --version and qmake --version. Actually, if you don't want to recompile the paraview or pvm3reader, you don't need to install the gcc on system as their is a gcc package in the thirdparty folder. But if you want to solve the problem that the openfoam always asks for the reader, you need to install the gcc on your system.
5. Besides, GCC, you should be sure that all the related QT softwares are installed. You could just click the computer ico at the bottom left corner and then install system. And use "qt" as the key words for searching, then install all the searched software packages. Also, "gmp" and "mpfr" packages must be installed.
6. Those who meet the problem of asking "a reader couldn't be found" should recompile pvm3reader following the next instructions.

enter the system folder /usr/lib with root account and run this command in the terminal.
ln -s libpython2.5.so.1.0 libpython2.5.so

then log out and using your former accout,and execute these commandlines.

cd $FOAM_UTILITIES/postProcessing/graphics/PV3FoamReader
./Allwclean
./Allwmake

***************************************
The lessons that I learned during this process are that all the problems are caused by improper system installation, ie. not all the packages related to QT and gmp and mpfr related to new versions of gcc are installed.

Never try the command ./Allwmake before installing the above-mentioned packages. Because the problems or errors occur during the compilation are so diversal.
*****************************************

Hope this help you!

Thx all the foamers who helped me on this forum.

Dear all and formers
We followed above instructions for installation OF1.5, in SUSE10.3 for 32 bit. We install all packages (GCC, Cmake, mpfr, gmp) also we done the symbolic link for library python, as root.
When execute ./Allwmake followed message error we obtained:

make[1]: Debido a los errores, el objetivo `application' no se reconstruyó.
make[1]: se sale del directorio `/home/foam5/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/applications/utilities/postProcessing'
make: *** [postProcessing] Error 2
make: Debido a los errores, el objetivo `application' no se reconstruyó.
+ '[' '' = doc ']'

We think this error is corrected with re-build paraview.
So we followed the instructions of readme file about, compiling Paraview3.3 and PV3FoamReader module, when execute buildParaView3.3-cvs we get this message error:
.......

done

So, if anybody as an idea about this error, please help us. Are missing another packages install for?

Thanks. Ana and Sonia

Hello,

The issue of a "good" Linux system has been asked often and I have tried installing OpenFOAM atleast 11 times (on a 32bit machine). So based on my experience, I would recommend the following in brief (detailed instruction/messages below):


SHORT VERSION:
1. Install OpenSuSE 10.3
DVD version comes loaded with most of the required development packages,libraries, etc. Click every software during installation (maybe except GAMES).
Only 2 packages are missing.

2. Install following packages from the DVD using YaST:
mpfr-2.2.1-45.i586.rpm
mpfr-devel-2.2.1-45.i586.rpm

3. Clean the Paraview platforms and recompile as mentioned in README.
~/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty> rm -rf ParaView3.3-cvs/platforms
~/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty> buildParaView3.3-cvs
~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/applications/utilities/postProcessing/graphics/PV3FoamRe ader> ./Allwclean
~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/applications/utilities/postProcessing/graphics/PV3FoamRe ader>./Allwmake

4. Ready to run first example as mentioned in Section 6(Getting Started) !

DETAILED version follows soon...

ciao
Rishi

Sorry I missed one step between 2 and 3.

Please follow the README file of OF-1.5 3 (Section 3 : Installation) for installation using binary files and updating bash/csh.

Dear Rishi Patil,
I got "FATAL ERROR: OpenFOAM environment not configured" when I tried to install OF1.5 on OpenSUSE10.3 (with KDE workstop).

The softare versions are :
**********************************************
> qmake --version
QMake version 2.01a
Using Qt version 4.3.1 in /usr/lib
> cmake --version
cmake version 2.4-patch 7

> gmake --version
GNU Make 3.81
> make --version
GNU Make 3.81
**********************************************

My foamSystemCheck is ok.

I have added "$HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-<version>/etc/bashrc"to the end of my $HOME/.bashrc file.When sourcing the $HOME/.bashrc file,I got "bash:.... permission denied".Then I typed
>> chmod -R 755 /home/OpenFOAM
>> $HOME/.bashrc
No problems were reported this time.


But when I test the installation with by executing the 'foamInstallationTest' script,it gives:

***********************************************

I'm a newer in linux and OpenFOAM.
Can you please suggest what should I do?

I don't know why you persons didn't read the errors carefully.
The above information tells you to configure the .bashrc file and source it to tell openfoam the position of related files.

Thank you for these guidelines coompressor, it solved one of the issues I was having when compiling 1.6.x, which interestingly does not compile gmp nor zlib nor mpfr by default, my issue was solved when I copied those 3 compiled "folders" from a previous 1.5 installation into my 1.6.x thirdparty folder.
