Base configuration ok.

The foam installation contains 1 critical error(s).

Review the output for warning messages and consult

the installation guide for trouble shooting.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------

The only Critical Error was whit icoFoam. I am sure that I copy the tutorial directory in the right place, using the command:

cebz@cebz:~/OpenFOAM/cebz-1.3/run/tutorials/icoFoam> cp -r OpenFOAM-1.3/tutorials cebz-1.3/run

Well, this is whit foamInstallationTest, in the practice (in the terminal) I sow the following. When I type "run", its work, I mean this comand get me in directory run

cebz@cebz:~> run

cebz@cebz:~/OpenFOAM/cebz-1.3/run>

But, wen I go to icoFoam directory and I type "blockMesh . cavity" this append:

cebz@cebz:~/OpenFOAM/cebz-1.3/run> cd tutorials/

cebz@cebz:~/OpenFOAM/cebz-1.3/run/tutorials> cd icoFoam/

cebz@cebz:~/OpenFOAM/cebz-1.3/run/tutorials/icoFoam> ls

Allclean Allrun cavity cavityClipped cavityGrade elbow resetFixedWallsScr

cebz@cebz:~/OpenFOAM/cebz-1.3/run/tutorials/icoFoam> blockMesh . cavity

bash: blockMesh: command not found

cebz@cebz:~/OpenFOAM/cebz-1.3/run/tutorials/icoFoam>


this message "bash: blockMesh: command not found" Say me that may be the bash is not well configured, but when I star the terminal there is messege of bast, it is:

Executing: /home/cebz/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.3/.bashrc

Executing: /home/cebz/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.3/.OpenFOAM-1.3/apps/ensightFoam/bashrc

Executing: /home/cebz/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.3/.OpenFOAM-1.3/apps/paraview/bashrc

cebz@cebz:~>


In other and, when I run Paraview, appears a list of errors but the ParaView in self run and I can see the grafic interface.

paraFoam . cavity

ErrorMessage
