Can SU2 3.1 be installed in CYGWIN, failed many times
 

HI, I try to install SU2 3.1 in CYGWIN
when I "make".
There was one "error":

Making all in externals

So, I disable the teico, then "make" again
but there was another "error":

The problem is the header file execinfo.h is missing. You can copy and paste it from this site in the directory .../externals/metis/GKlib. After that proceed with the configuration.
Note that this is only for serial compilation and installation. For parallel it will not work.

Thank you for your help.

I meet the same problem and I followed the method but failed. The version of su2 is v3.2.0. What is the problem? Besides, if I do the parallel compilation, how to deal with this problem? Thanks!

Eventually, I installed a virtual machine for Ubuntu, it worked very well.
SU2 V3.x had a lot of changes comparing SU2 V2.x.

I got the same problem. Did you figure out the solutions?
