Hi to ervybody!
I have this problem with wmake:
when I try to recompile something, i write wmake, but I get this message:


ivan@bombadil:~/OpenFOAM/ivan-1.4.1/run$ wmake
-bash: /opt/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.4.1/wmake/wmake: Permission denied

What's happen?
Thank you!

Probably a permissions problem if you are in a different group than the owner.

Try "chmod -R a+rX DIRNAME" as the owner (eg, root) and see if that fixes it.

Note that 'X' is in uppercase - this will only add execution permission if it is already set.

Dear all!

I m about to try understanding OF and its structure and want to see how to compile a new library. Therefore, I copied the kEpsilon turbulence model to the user directory, modified it a bit and changed the name to mykEpsilon (see also 3rd OF training/workshop, Milano). When compiling with the command wmake libso i get the following message:

linuxGccDPOpt/options:5: *** missing separator. Stop.
/home/E202/aa/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.4.1/wmake/wmake: cannot make, file Make/linuxGccDPOpt/objectFiles was not created successfully

I was not able to find any hint in the discussion forum so can anybody give me one??

Thanks a lot in advance!

The EXE_INC and LIB_LIBS have to be one file or use '\' as continuation symbol. Check that you have '\' and no space after it.

[mabinty]

thx mattijs for your respons!

i put the EXE_INC and LIB_LIBS in the same file and also used '\' as continuation symbol. The /Make/options file looks like this:

mykEpsilon.C
EXE_LIBS = $(FOAM_USER_LIBBIN)/mylibTurbulenceModel

EXE_INC = \
-I$(LIB_SRC)/finiteVolume/lnInclude \
-I$(LIB_SRC)/meshTools/lnInclude \
-I$(LIB_SRC)/thermophysicalModels/basic/lnInclude \
-I$(LIB_SRC)/turbulenceModels/incompressible/lnInclude

producing the following Make/linuxGccDPOpt/options file:

# 1 "options"
# 1 "<built-in>"
# 1 "<command>"
# 1 "options"
mykEpsilon.C
EXE_LIBS = $(FOAM_USER_LIBBIN)/mylibTurbulenceModel

EXE_INC = -I$(LIB_SRC)/finiteVolume/lnInclude -I$(LIB_SRC)/meshTools/lnInclude -I$(LIB_SRC)/thermophysicalModels/basic/lnInclude -I$(LIB_SRC)/turbulenceModels/incompressible/lnInclude

not separating the exe_inc paths. I've no idea why.

[mattijs]

The mykEpsilon.C should be in Make/files, not options. Check any other library.

Hi everyone,

I encountered the following problem using wmake and I don't have a clear understanding of it.
Is perhaps the file gambitToFoam.C missing?
(OF is installed on Ubuntu 7.04)

Thanks a lot in advance!

thx mattijs! wmake compiles now, and producing plenty errors as it doesn t find header files ... I've to look at it.

thx again for your help!

dear all!!

now I try to implement a new bc rampedFixedValueFvPatchField, copied and adjusted from oscillatingFixedValueFvPatchField. after fixing some mistakes while compiling I get an error I'm not able to cope with (see command lines below).

could anybody give me a clue??

thx very much in advance!!

Hello all,

I've got exactly the same problem as Roberto, when recompiling the combustion library. I think it's not a problem of OpenFOAM itself. I think it arises from the flex++ package which must be treated in any way different by Ubuntu and by SUSE linux.

But I have not yet a solution for that problem. Maybe there is someone who, has had the same problem with OF on Ubuntu.

I would be very grateful to get any hint, what to do.

Thanks a lot!

Aram,

I know it is a long time, but do you recall how you solved your problem?

I am having a similar one with the oscillatingFixedValue patch (error messages are here.

Thanks,

Mirko

[mirko]

Never mind. Problem solved. Sorry for troubling you.

Hi,

I have a problem for couple of weeks now. I created some utilities for OpenFOAM for my cases and I compiled them using wmake in 'sudo bash' permission.

On some utilities (the one that I copy/paste from the library), it work perfectly. But for them that I downloaded, I need to be in 'sudo bash' mode to actually see the utilities and execute them.

I can't also wmake my file in normal mode (no sudo bash) and the 'sudo su' doesn't work at all...

It's kind of annoying because all the file that I create in bash mode are protected when I return in normal mode.

I hope it's clear, english is not my mother tong...

Thank you though!

[wyldckat]

Greetings Arthur,

OK, let's address the two issues at hand:

1. Running commands as sudo (aka as root) should be avoided as much as possible. This is why usually tutorials about creating variants of OpenFOAM source code indicate that we should edit the file "Make/files" and for example, rename "FOAM_APPBIN" to "FOAM_USER_APPBIN". Here's an example of such a tutorial: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Ho...ure_to_icoFoam - as you should see, all commands are performed as normal user and not as root
2. So your files are read-only or even not accessible as normal user. Then, depending on where the files are, you can do the following steps (as normal user):
   1. Move the files as root to your user folder:

      sudo mv /path/to/root/folder/where/files/are $HOME/my/personal/folder

      This you probably only want to do if the files are located at "/root".
   2. Change the user ownership of the files and folders. This can be done with the following command:
      

      sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /path/to/files/or/folder

      Or if your user's group is "users":
      

      sudo chown -R $USER:users /path/to/files/or/folder

And that's the trick!

Best regards,
Bruno
