I am installing OpenFOAM on a cluster. The location of the source is in my home folder. On running ./Allwmake this is the first error i get:
Code:

How do i resolve this ?

Greetings Balkrishna,

This is an old bug, as you can see in this thread: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...n-problem.html

OK, so there are two points to be taken into account:
  1. Which gcc/g++ version are you using? To know this, run:
    Code:
    gcc --version
    You should at least be running gcc 4.3.x, where x>=0.
  2. It's better to at least install OpenFOAM 1.7.1, since some critical bugs have been fixed, although mainly related to working with gcc 4.5.x.
Another thing that might help us help you, is knowing which Linux distribution your cluster is running. It's possible that an OpenFOAM build ready to be used is already available in the wild for your Linux based cluster For example, CentFOAM for CentOS 5.x comes to mind: OpenFOAM-1.7.0 for CentOS/RHEL/SL 5.x 64bit released

If your cluster has a gcc version below 4.3.x, then you can either:
Best regards and good luck!
Bruno

Thanks for the same .... the cluster was using an older version of gcc .... the sys admin asked me to use gcc44 instead of gcc .... I did as u mentioned in the following post . http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...hel-5-5-a.html .... However i still get the following error :
Code:
make[2]: *** [/home2/b.patankar/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.7.0/applications/bin/linux64GccDPOpt/IFCLookUpTableGen] Error 1
make[1]: *** [IFCLookUpTableGen] Error 2
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lOpenFOAM

make[1]: *** [mixtureAdiabaticFlameT] Error 2
make[1]: Target `application' not remade because of errors.
make: *** [thermophysical] Error 2
make: Target `application' not remade because of errors.
Could u help me out ....

Thanks ,

Hi Balkrishna,

OK, there might various reasons why things are not working. So lets try going through this step by step:
  1. Run Allwmake like this:
    Code:
    ./Allwmake > make.log 2>&1
  2. If you want to omit sensitive data, edit the file make.log with a text editor and use the replace function to change the paths or names of your user name and so on.
  3. Save and close. Then compress the file; you can do it by running:
    Code:
    tar -czf make.tar.gz make.log
  4. Then attach the file make.tar.gz on your next post.
Basically, the first error our first couple of errors are the ones to blame.

Edit: You might also want to see this thread: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...ar-dtu-dk.html

Best regards,
Bruno

Hi Balkrishna,

Ah, the infamous
Code:
cannot find -liberty
error...
The missing file library is named "libiberty.so". Usually it resides in the package binutils-devel (its the package name in Fedora, so I assume that in RHEL it will be the same). You'll have to ask your systems administrator to install that package as well

Ironically, by what I could figure out, the latest OpenFOAM 1.7.x no longer needs libiberty.so

Best regards,
Bruno

It looks like MPI_INIT failed for some reason; your parallel process is
likely to abort.  There are many reasons that a parallel process can
fail during MPI_INIT; some of which are due to configuration or environment
problems.  This failure appears to be an internal failure; here's some
additional information (which may only be relevant to an Open MPI
developer):

Hi Balkrishna,

I completely forgot about MPI... OK, I assume you didn't change the OpenFOAM MPI options to use your cluster's MPI toolbox!?

It's easier if I quote the post by Kasper Kærgaard that I mentioned in another post:
Quote:

First tell openfoam to use the system mpi: in OpenFOAM-1.7.1/etc/bashrc
set the variable WM_MPLIB to SYSTEMOPENMPI. The line you should edit ends up looking like this:
: ${WM_MPLIB:=SYSTEMOPENMPI}; export WM_MPLIB

Next tell openfoam where to find the system MPI. In etc/settings.sh right after these two lines:
SYSTEMOPENMPI)
# use the system installed openmpi, get library directory via mpicc
mpi_version=openmpi-system
add these two lines:
export MPI_HOME=/opt/SUNWhpc/HPC8.2.1c/gnu/
export MPI_ARCH_PATH=/opt/SUNWhpc/HPC8.2.1c/gnu/

In order to use the system mpi you must call:

module load mpi

at the beginning of your session, i.e. either interactive session, or in your run file.
You'll probably have to adapt to your cluster's MPI version!

Good luck!
Bruno

I did read that post . One thing which bothered me was the difference which mpi is used makes , especially since both the mpi versions are identical in my case . Also regarding the post :
The command :
Code:
module load mpi
gives the following error :
Code:
module: command not found
How shd i tackle this ?

Thanks ,
Balkrishna

Hi Balkrishna,

Sadly I have no experience with these types of cluster environments I can only assume that the job manager for the cluster has a module loading system, that is used strictly when launching the parallel cases. It's not meant to be used directly in .bashrc.

Best regards,
Bruno
