Hello everybody,

I want to check out the new cfMesh version 1.1 on my Ubuntu VM OS. Therefore I downloaded cfMesh-1.1-linux.run from Sourceforge and moved it to the /opt/cfMesh directory. Then I entered

chmod u+x cfMesh-1.1-linux.run

as proposed in the readme file. After that I looked for a proper way to install the software. I typed

./cfMesh-1.1-linux.run

. Unfortunately I got an error message:

QSslSocket: cannot resolve SSLv2_client_method
QSslSocket: cannot resolve SSLv2_client_method
No marker found, stopped after 1.00 MiB.

I can't figure out what this is supposed to tell me.

I'd be thankful for any advice.

Best regards,

Kate

Hello Kate!

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention.
It seems the installer file on SourceForge got corrupted. I have reuploaded the file, and it should be OK now. The new file installs on my Ubuntu VM without issue.
Please try to download the file again.

I am sorry for your inconvenience.

Hello Tomislav,

No problem. And thank you, the installation worked perfectly now.
Following the README-cfMesh.txt file I want to copy the tutorials example directory to the run directory. Where are these tutorials? In the /Home/CreativeFields/cfMesh-v1.1 I can only find the folders foam-extend-3.1, Licenses and ReleaseNotes and a few other files.

Thank you for your help,

Kate

Hello Kate!

The tutorials are not installed by default, you need to select them as an option during installation. If selected, they are installed in ~/CreativeFields/cfMesh-v1.1/cfMesh/tutorials.

Hello,

I am quite sure the installation of the tutorials and one or two other things were checked by default during the installation process. Anyways, I'm willing to try it again. Can you tell me how to uninstall cfMesh in order to start the installation again?

Best regards,

Kate

Hello

There is an uninstaller binary in ~/CreativeFields/cfMesh-v1.1/cfMeshUninstall
Also, if you type cfMesh into Unity launcher, you will be offered to run the uninstaler from there

Tomislav,

sorry for the inconvenience. It was like you said, I just forgot to check the fields during the installation process.

Hi again,

I was trying to run the cartesianMesh/asmoOctree tutorial the following way:

1) chmod u+x Allrun (to give it permissions)
2) ./Allrun (to run the script)

Unfortunately no mesh was created. I think the problem is the environment $WM_PROJECT_DIR which is not set up properly. Please note that normally I don't work on ubuntu.

My log.cartesianMesh reads:

./Allrun: 52: ./Allrun: cartesianMesh: not found

Kind regards,

Kate

Hi

Did you try to run it from your native shell or did you run the installed cfMesh shell?
If you run your native shell (terminal), you need to source ~/CreativeFields/cfMesh-1.1/foam-extend-3.1/etc/bashrc. If you start the shell by double clicking on the cfMesh shell on the desktop, you have this done automatically.
If you cannot run it from the desktop shell, please send me the printout of the env command.

Hi Dominic!

The first message simply indicates that the installer was not able to create an uninstaller icon on the desktop. This does not affect your ability to run cfMesh, it will only mean you need to go to the installation directory to run the uninstaller. This is usually caused by permission issues in Linux. Perhaps the installer did not have sufficient permissions to create the file.

The second message can safely be disregarded. Since we provide only the offline installer, and we do not have an online repository, this will not cause any issues with your installation.

Feel free to contact me if you have any issues running cfMesh.

Regards, Tomislav
