Alright... if you had checked the last link I posted, you would have seen the respective command for openSUSE... OK, it's not very similar, but the idea is still there.

Anyway, assuming you're the administrator of the machine:
Then try build "libccmio" once again.

Hey all!

Will the procedure in post 27, with the file in post 29 work on OpenFoam 2.1.1 ?

Thanks!

Greetings emirust,

I haven't tested with 2.1.1, but I think it should work.

I don't have time to test it now, so why don't you test it and tell us if it worked or not!? ;)

Best regards,
Bruno

Hey all!

I followed the procedure and built it on OF 2.1.1. Works well!

Thanks for the easy way wyldckat!

Hi,
I am not able to compile it with OpenFOAM 2.2.0

I compile it with :
sudo bash
sudo wmake

and I get this error :
I don't know what do I miss ?
I modified the options file in Make/options as mentionned before but I'm not sure it points to the correct target. What file are supposed to be missing ?

Thanks in advance.

Greetings Slammer and welcome to the forum!

OpenFOAM 2.2.0 had a bug in the "ccm26ToFoam.C" source code file. The fix is this one: https://github.com/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM...8af7a51d41fc4b
You can edit the file and manually replace the text in red for the text in green ;)

Best regards,

Hi,
I was not able to remeber where the git repo was.
It helps me more than expected :)

It compiles and 'work' on an exemple. Now, I just need to check if it does the right things.

Thanks a lot.:)

Hi,

I'm using the Ubuntu Deb package version 2.2.0. I already changed the ccm26ToFoam.C as mentioned above. It still doesn't work. Do I need to do something else?

Thanks in advance

Greetings Jack220 and welcome to the forum!

OK, after you've adapted the source code, what else did you do?
Did you follow the steps from post #37: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...tml#post365682 :confused:

Best regards,
Bruno

Hi Bruno,

thank you for your fast answer!

I went in the direction with my .ccm file and executed the command "ccm26ToFoam file.ccm". The following message appeared: "command not found".
But in "/opt/openfoam220/applications/utilities/mesh/conversion/Optional/ccm26ToFoam" I can see my "ccm26ToFoam.C"-file.

I can't do the steps described in post #37:

First of all, I had to create the "ThirdParty-xxx" directory, because I could'nt find it.

And when I execute "AllwmakeLibccmio" the following error occurs:
/opt/openfoam220/ThirdParty-2.2.0/AllwmakeLibccmio: 39: .: Can't open tools/makeThirdPartyFunctions

Best regards,

Jack

Hi Jack,

Attached is a new and improved installation script, specifically created for OpenFOAM 2.2.0 and 2.2.x, based on the one from my old posts, namely #27.

To use it:

1. Download the attached file.
2. Unpack it:
   
   Code:

   ---

   tar -xf ccm26local220.tar.gz

   ---

3. Go into the folder "ccm26local220" and run the script:
   
   Code:

   ---

   cd ccm26local220
./ccm26local

   ---

4. Follow the instructions the script gives you.

Best regards,
Bruno

Thank you very much, Bruno! That works fine!

Hey all!

Can you help me?

I have done all of instructions of the post #51. Instalation have installed correct.



I have little experience in the use of Linux and OpenFoam.

I have mesh from StarCCM+ 8.02. par example ~/Desktop/new/star_CCM.ccm
I want to covert this mesh to Fluent.
I understand that I have to convert this mesh to FOAM and FOAM to Fluent.

Could you write commands or sequencing that need to run these?

thanks in advance!

Hi Alexander,

Any luck with your conversion from StarCCM to Fluent. I want to a similar thing, your inputs will be helpful

Greetings to all!

It's somewhat simple to perform this conversion, but I would say that it is very likely to result in having a bad mesh on Fluent's side, due to the 2 step conversion process.

Any way, the steps are:

1. On the command line, first copy a tutorial case from OpenFOAM's tutorials, because you're going to need a case to act as a base structure for having the intermediate mesh. For example:
   
   Code:

   ---

   cp -r $FOAM_TUTORIALS/incompressible/icoFoam/cavity .
cd cavity

   ---

2. Then run the CCM converter on your CCM+ mesh:
   
   Code:

   ---

   ccm26ToFoam yourmesh.ccm

   ---

3. Then export the current mesh to Fluent format:
   
   Code:

   ---

   foamMeshToFluent

   ---

4. The resulting mesh file is placed automatically inside the folder "fluentInterface".

But as I said, prepare yourself for complaining about the resulting bad mesh :(

Best regards,
Bruno

Once you finish the steps in the post #51. Next I tried to do the following:

ccm26ToFoam yourmesh.ccm

From here the terminal window gave me an error.


--> FOAM FATAL IO ERROR:
cannot find file

file: /home/wilmer/Downloads/ccm26local220/system/controlDict at line 0.

From function regIOobject::readStream()
in file db/regIOobject/regIOobjectRead.C at line 73.

FOAM exiting

I'm new to this. Could anyone tell me if I'm following the directions right? Any steps that I'm missing here?

Set up your case properly including the full hierarchy of folders and files. The error means you need to have a system/ folder with a valid controlDict file in it.

Hi Bruno,

I am using version 2.1.1 and first i downloaded file at post 29 and followed the procedure as you explained at post 27. However it gives following error:


could you help to me how can i solve this problem.

Thanks in advance.
