OpenSuSE 11.2 installation
 

Hi,

I am using gcc from ThirdParty.

Pei

Hi Pei,

what kind of error do you get? Can you post the log or parts of it?

I'm in the same situation (11.2 x64) not beeing able to compile 1.6.x with the ThirdParty gcc-4.3.3 regardless if I use the self compiled gcc or the provided binaries. I'm getting numerous complaints about a missing GLIBCXX_3.4.11, although I have the corresponding lib (libstdc++.so.6, version 6.0.12) installed.

I then tried to relink the gcc variant of libstdc++.so.6 as suggested here but that didn't work either. Although the GLIBCXX_3.4.11 errors dissapeared, gcc still wasn't working properly.

As a workaround, you can install the system gcc-43 via YaST (in fact 4.3.4) and use it instead of the native system gcc (4.4.1). With this workaround I was able to compile 1.6.x without any errors.

I hope you finally get it working, too.

Best regards,
Johannes

Hi, Johannes,

Thanks for the suggestion. I will try out the workaround.

Pei

Hi, Johannes,

Here is part of the error messages before the workaround.

Hi,

Thanks to Johannes that I finally am able to compile OpenFOAM-1.6.x on OpenSUSE 11.2 64 bit OS.

I had to do the following two steps suggested:

cd /home/USER_NAME/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-1.6.x/gcc-4.3.3/platforms/linux64/lib64
1.
sudo mv libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6.orig
sudo ln -s /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.10 libstdc++.so.6

sudo mv libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1.orig
sudo ln -s /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1

2. install gcc43.

Hi,
I am also doing the installation of OpenFoam1.6 on OpenSUSE 11.2, 64 bit OS.
Actually I followed the steps here to fix the GLIBCXX problems but something is still missing. When I try ./Allwmake in the OpenFoam/OpenFOAM-1.6 directory many of the follow problems appear:
g++: no input files
make: ** [libNULL.so] Erro 1
Can anyone help me to solve this problem?

Cure for OpenSuSE 11.2
 

Dear Foamers!

After few hours, i found how to install OpenFOAM on OpenSuSE 11.2 (32 & 64 bit) using system compiler (gcc v. 4.4)

There are some bugs (i think) in configuration and source files of OpenFOAM.

Steps are:

1) Correct file OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6/etc/settings.sh as suggested here:
2) Correct source code in file OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6/src/meshTools/triSurface/surfaceFeatures/surfaceFeatures.C, lines 768, 769, 869, 870

lines 768, 769
lines 869, 870:
3) run ./Allwmake

That's All!

paraview should be also recompiled, paraFoam doesn't work (use foamToVTK and then paraview)

go to OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6/ and run script ./Allwmake

Also, it was found, that openmpi on OpenSuSE 11.2 with OpenFOAM behaves strangely.

On 4-core Intel processor:
icoFoam (and all other apps)
- runs well for 2 cores
- stalls sometimes for 3 cores
- stall everytime for 4 cores

Why? I don't know. I switched to OpenSuSE 10.3 (gcc 4.2), in this distribution everything goes fine.

Hmm interesting. I cannot reproduce the problems on openSUSE 11.2. Might it depend on the machine? What is your hardware configuration? Also, I built OF 1.6.x on openSUSE 11.2 using the system compiler without fixing the script and it seems to behave correctly here. I'm using gcc, cmake and gcc from openSUSE 11.2, but the rest from ThirdParty.

Do you still have problem if you add mpirun option "-mca btl ^sm" ?

It could be that you are hitting this:
https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/2043

Actually have exactly the same problem. The listing is something like
Also, I guess, that the following problem also somehow relates to this: when I am trying to compile any of the utilities (for ex. gmshToFoam, or ParabolicVelocityInlet, all works fine with OF-1.6 and Suse 11.1) I am getting the following error:
Could anyone give me any hints please?

Could you check you installed the whole C/C++ development pattern, and followed the steps I summed up here (warning, marketing my stuff :D)

http://albertopassalacqua.com/?p=532

Best,

Thank you, Alberto!

By following instructions on your site I have managed to solve mentioned problems. I have compiled OpenFOAM and paraFoam without any further problems. Now they are fine and working well.

Still did not understand, where error could be, but anyway I am happy that the OpenFOAM works again.

Denis

Good!
Probably some missing library brought in by the C/C++ development pattern, which anyway a good idea to have if you use gcc ;-)

Dear OF-users,

I have installed OpenFOAM-1.6.x on OpenSUSE Linux 11.2 following the steps of Alberto.

Both tutorials (airfoil2D and dambreak) run well.

But I think I have still some problems.
The foamInstallationTest give 1 critical error. As suggested I have used gcc from the system.

And I am no more able to run MRFSimpleFoam. I have the following error message.

Thanks for helping me !

Hi,

I don't think you exactly followed my steps :). You should not have gcc 4.3.3. at all on your system.
Delete or rename its directory in the OpenFOAM/ThirdParty directory, and to the same with cmake, since you are supposed to use the version provided with openSUSE.

You will still get a "critical" error from foamInstallationTest, which says

gcc 4.4.1
WARNING: Conflicting installations:
OpenFOAM settings : /bin/gcc
current path : /usr/bin/gcc
CRITICAL ERROR

Feel free to ignore it.

Best,
Alberto

Hi Alberto,

I run again foamInstallationTest and get :

So the installation seems OK.

OK.

Did you rebuild everything with the system compiler? I have just run the MRFSimpleFoam tutorial successfully, and it seems we have the same system.

Best,
Alberto

Hello @all,

same problem (Suse11.2&2.6.31.5-0.1-default&Kde4.3.1-32bit on 64bit system, git clone git://repo.or.cz/OpenFOAM-1.6.x.git) -> 1 critical gcc error ($WM_COMPILER_DIR))

(recompiled paraView and openmpi (yast2: software installed?) first)
until now this worked (...OpenFOAM-1.6/etc/settings.sh):
...
compilerBin=$WM_COMPILER_DIR/bin
compilerLib=$WM_COMPILER_DIR/lib$WM_COMPILER_LIB_ARCH:$WM_COMPILER_DIR/lib
;;
System)
export WM_COMPILER_DIR="/usr"
;;
esac
if [ -d "$compilerBin" ]
then
_foamAddPath $compilerBin
_foamAddLib $compilerLib
fi
...

just compiled ~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6/tutorials/incompressible/icoFoam/cavity
(could look at it with:
console:~/OpenFOAM/FOAM_RUN/tutorials/incompressible/icoFoam # icoFoam -case cavity
console:~/OpenFOAM/FOAM_RUN/tutorials/incompressible/icoFoam # paraview)

Thanks to Alberto and all supporters.

hopefully helpful,

bernhard

p.s. there is no "ThirdParty/cmake" folder anymore???

Hi,

I discover the problem.

For OpenFOAM-1.6.x and OpenSUSE 11.2 I have to use the system compiler.

So I just have forgotten to recompile MRFSimpleFoam too.

cd ~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6.x/tutorials/incompressible/MRFSimpleFoam
wmake

and now MRFSimpleFoam works again.

Regards,

Stephane.

Following the steps of Alberto works fine for me (OpenFOAM-1.6.x and pvFoam).
