Compilation Error 1 (Allwmake) on Ubuntu 11.04

freemankofi · May 28, 2011, 17:28

Hi,
I am trying installing OF 1.7.1 on my Ubuntu 11.04 (latest version). I keep on get this "error 1" message. It seems some library is missing:

SOURCE=derivedFvPatchFields/wideBandDiffusiveRadiation/wideBandDiffusiveRadiationMixedFvPatchScalarField. C ; g++ -m64 -Dlinux64 -DWM_DP -Wall -Wextra -Wno-unused-parameter -Wold-style-cast -Wnon-virtual-dtor -O3 -DNoRepository -ftemplate-depth-40 -I/home/adane/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.7.1/src/finiteVolume/lnInclude -I/home/adane/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.7.1/src/thermophysicalModels/basic/lnInclude -IlnInclude -I. -I/home/adane/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.7.1/src/OpenFOAM/lnInclude -I/home/adane/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.7.1/src/OSspecific/POSIX/lnInclude -fPIC -c $SOURCE -o Make/linux64GccDPOpt/wideBandDiffusiveRadiationMixedFvPatchScalarField. o

etc.

First, I follow the installation instructions on OF website and even install it my home directory on a cluster. This means, it's coming coming these particular computers which is using Ubuntu latest version (64bit).

Secondly, if anyone knows similar posting please let me know about it.

Thanks

Greetings Freeman,

Mmm, it's not finding libraries...

OK, by steps:

What packages have you installed in Ubuntu for building OpenFOAM, if any!? Here's an old reference list for Ubuntu: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...tml#post268828
Run Allwmake like this:
Code:
```
./Allwmake > make.log 2>&1
```
This will make a full log into make.log, including errors that are outputted during the building process (i.e. "2>&1" does the redirect of stderr to stdout).
Find the first error, which is where you most likely will catch the real problem. If you can't figure out the error message(s), then pack it and attach it to your next post.

Good luck!
Bruno

Bruno,
Q1: I am using Source Pack Installation for OF version 1.7.1 (http://www.openfoam.com/download/source.php). Please note that, I am using "sudo apt-get ...) because my experience with it is that it doesn't allow me to build my own solver since during compilation it tries to access /opt/... which required root user or some admin permission.

But the source pack can be installed in one's local directory and therefore would be easier for creating my own solver. As I indicated in my first posting this very version has been successfully installed on a linux cluster. I am trying to install on a new Workstation which is running on Ubuntu 11.04.

Hi Freeman,

Ah, so far it's pretty simple, simply install the package zlib1g-dev:

Code:

sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev

Then run Allwmake again just like as before.

Best regards,
Bruno

Hi Freeman,

This is what happens when you don't follow my instructions to the line

You should have installed the artillery of packages that I indicated that were in the thread "http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...tml#post268828 post #4":

The library "libiberty.so" is on one of those packages... but I'm not sure which one... possibly in binutils-dev.

Best regards,

freemankofi · June 2, 2011, 10:57

Bruno,
Thanks. I got it installed, just that paraFoam doesn't work with error: $HOME//OpenFOAM-1.7.1/bin/paraFoam: 142: paraview: not found. I believe the error is coming from "CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND." I check that dirctory and everything is ok.

But never mind I have installed the full ParaView Viewer via Ubuntu Software centre. That worked fine for now ...

Once again thanks for your help!
Freeman

Hi Freeman,

Then this might be helpful:

Now open the file "$WM_PROJECT_DIR/bin/paraFoam" in your favorite simple text editor and replace every entry ".OpenFOAM" with ".foam". Now save and close the file.
NOTE: if you're feeling too lazy to open a text editor, try this:

Code:

sed -i -e 's=\.OpenFOAM=\.foam=' $WM_PROJECT_DIR/bin/paraFoam

Best regards,

Toorop · June 10, 2011, 10:09

Hi Bruno,

I would like to create a log file as you suggested in your post.

Code:

./Allwmake > make.log 2>&1

Terminal message: bash: make.log: Permission denied
I tried sudo before the command but it didn't help.

The other workaround that I tried:

Code:

./Allwmake | tee $HOME/Documents/debug.txt

This gives a plethora of error messages on the terminal and the debug.txt contains:

Code:

make: Nothing to be done for `all'.
no git description found

Note: ignore spurious warnings about missing mpicxx.h headers
make[1]: Entering directory `/opt/openfoam171/applications/solvers/DNS'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/openfoam171/applications/solvers/DNS'
...
Found readline/readline.h  --  enabling readline support.
...
make[1]: Entering directory `/opt/openfoam171/applications/utilities/thermophysical'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/openfoam171/applications/utilities/thermophysical'

... section represents the other solvers and utilities.

With

Code:

sudo ./Allwmake | tee $HOME/Documents/debug.txt

the terminal and the debug file is the same:

Code:

Error: Current directory is not $WM_PROJECT_DIR
The environment variable are not consistent with the installation.
Check the OpenFOAM entries in your dot-files and source them.

Strange, since if I execute pwd or echo $WM_PROJECT_DIR I get the same output.

The other wired thing is with foamInstallationTest. It gives me:

Code:

Checking basic setup...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FATAL ERROR: OpenFOAM environment not configured.

I'm an Ubuntu 11.04 user, have the openfoam171 in /opt. I have successfully installed 1.7.1 as the official site suggested, but the ./Allwmake command wont work properly I think. I can create my own solvers to $FOAM_USER_APPBIN. Bit strange.

Thanks!

freemankofi · June 10, 2011, 10:31

hi Toorop,
Perhaps, Bruno will get back to you on it.

In the meantime, I think you have permission issue. Because usually "/opt/...." can only be accessed/executed/written etc by "root" user and therefore compilation wouldn't work unless you log on as root user.

If you're root user, then % sudo su. Note that, doing this means that anytime either yourself or anyone wants to compile must always have to log on as root user.

To avoid the above: follow carefully the instructions listed on openfoam source package page (http://www.openfoam.com/download/source.php), where you can install on your local directory. This doesn't need sudo or whatsoever but you have to set environment anytime you open a new terminal (i'ven't been able to set it for good!).

The other way is to install "ready made" (http://www.openfoam.com/download/ubuntu.php) which can also be installed in either local directory (/home/) or /opt/.... For my case since I'm administrator and other people will also use OF, I installed "ready-made" in /opt/ and source package in my local directory (/home). This allows those who're "light" or novice users to enjoy OF while I am also able to create a solver.

I hope this helps...
Freeman

wyldckat · June 10, 2011, 12:53

Hi Tibor and Freeman!

Freeman is right: the best thing would be to use the source version.

But if you still want to use the version already installed, and risk having no working OpenFOAM version, then run:

Code:

sudo chmod -R o+w /opt/openfoam171

This will give you writing permissions onto that folder and everything in it.

Additionally, the usual packages necessary for building OpenFOAM in Ubuntu are:

This is a command line that will install most of the necessary (and some possibly unnecessary) packages for building OpenFOAM and ParaView:

Code:

sudo apt-get install binutils-dev flex bison git-core    build-essential python-dev libreadline5-dev wget zlib1g-dev cmake    libpng12-dev libxt-dev libxi-dev libxrender-dev libxrandr-dev    libxcursor-dev libxinerama-dev libfreetype6-dev libfontconfig1-dev    libglib2.0-dev freeglut3-dev libqt4-dev qt4-dev-tools

Right now I'm not 100% on which packages are truly needed for you, so if I'm not mistaken:

Code:

sudo apt-get install binutils-dev flex bison build-essential zlib1g-dev libglib2.0-dev

Best regards,

Freeman and Bruno, thank you, I have managed to compile OF1.7.1. Thumbs up! Next time I will go for the source pack installation, hopefully without any major problems!

Toorop Member Tibor Nyers Join Date: Jul 2010 Location: Hungary Posts: 91 Rep Power: 16	Hi Bruno, I would like to create a log file as you suggested in your post. Code: ./Allwmake > make.log 2>&1 Terminal message: bash: make.log: Permission denied I tried sudo before the command but it didn't help. The other workaround that I tried: Code: ./Allwmake \| tee $HOME/Documents/debug.txt This gives a plethora of error messages on the terminal and the debug.txt contains: Code: make: Nothing to be done for `all'. no git description found Note: ignore spurious warnings about missing mpicxx.h headers make[1]: Entering directory `/opt/openfoam171/applications/solvers/DNS' make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/openfoam171/applications/solvers/DNS' ... Found readline/readline.h -- enabling readline support. ... make[1]: Entering directory `/opt/openfoam171/applications/utilities/thermophysical' make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/openfoam171/applications/utilities/thermophysical' ... section represents the other solvers and utilities. With Code: sudo ./Allwmake \| tee $HOME/Documents/debug.txt the terminal and the debug file is the same: Code: Error: Current directory is not $WM_PROJECT_DIR The environment variable are not consistent with the installation. Check the OpenFOAM entries in your dot-files and source them. Strange, since if I execute pwd or echo $WM_PROJECT_DIR I get the same output. The other wired thing is with foamInstallationTest. It gives me: Code: Checking basic setup... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FATAL ERROR: OpenFOAM environment not configured. I'm an Ubuntu 11.04 user, have the openfoam171 in /opt. I have successfully installed 1.7.1 as the official site suggested, but the ./Allwmake command wont work properly I think. I can create my own solvers to $FOAM_USER_APPBIN. Bit strange. Thanks!

freemankofi Member Freeman Adane Join Date: Apr 2010 Posts: 42 Rep Power: 16	Bruno, Q1: I am using Source Pack Installation for OF version 1.7.1 (http://www.openfoam.com/download/source.php). Please note that, I am using "sudo apt-get ...) because my experience with it is that it doesn't allow me to build my own solver since during compilation it tries to access /opt/... which required root user or some admin permission. But the source pack can be installed in one's local directory and therefore would be easier for creating my own solver. As I indicated in my first posting this very version has been successfully installed on a linux cluster. I am trying to install on a new Workstation which is running on Ubuntu 11.04.

freemankofi Member Freeman Adane Join Date: Apr 2010 Posts: 42 Rep Power: 16	Bruno, Thanks. I got it installed, just that paraFoam doesn't work with error: $HOME//OpenFOAM-1.7.1/bin/paraFoam: 142: paraview: not found. I believe the error is coming from "CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND." I check that dirctory and everything is ok. But never mind I have installed the full ParaView Viewer via Ubuntu Software centre. That worked fine for now ... Once again thanks for your help! Freeman

freemankofi Member Freeman Adane Join Date: Apr 2010 Posts: 42 Rep Power: 16	hi Toorop, Perhaps, Bruno will get back to you on it. In the meantime, I think you have permission issue. Because usually "/opt/...." can only be accessed/executed/written etc by "root" user and therefore compilation wouldn't work unless you log on as root user. If you're root user, then % sudo su. Note that, doing this means that anytime either yourself or anyone wants to compile must always have to log on as root user. To avoid the above: follow carefully the instructions listed on openfoam source package page (http://www.openfoam.com/download/source.php), where you can install on your local directory. This doesn't need sudo or whatsoever but you have to set environment anytime you open a new terminal (i'ven't been able to set it for good!). The other way is to install "ready made" (http://www.openfoam.com/download/ubuntu.php) which can also be installed in either local directory (/home/) or /opt/.... For my case since I'm administrator and other people will also use OF, I installed "ready-made" in /opt/ and source package in my local directory (/home). This allows those who're "light" or novice users to enjoy OF while I am also able to create a solver. I hope this helps... Freeman

Toorop Member Tibor Nyers Join Date: Jul 2010 Location: Hungary Posts: 91 Rep Power: 16	Freeman and Bruno, thank you, I have managed to compile OF1.7.1. Thumbs up! Next time I will go for the source pack installation, hopefully without any major problems! Cheers!
