Now I have made a .def file in Windows cfx, and put it into the supercompter.
I was told to use terminal to submit a script flie to run the .def file.
Then there comes the error, it said 'cfx5solve: command not found'.

Here is the script file:

#PBS -N test
#PBS -l nodes=1pn=8
#PBS -j oe
#PBS -l walltime=200:00:00
#PBS -q blade

cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR

echo my job id is $PBS_JOBID | tee test.log
echo run nodes is following: | tee -a test.log
cat $PBS_NODEFILE | tee -a test.log
echo pwd is `pwd` | tee -a test.log

echo begin time is `date` | tee -a test.log
id=`echo $PBS_JOBID|awk -F. '{print $1}' `
NP=`cat $PBS_NODEFILE|wc -l`

cd /public/home/dichen/CFX
cfx5solve -def hawkmoth 60deg mesh2.def -par-local -partition 8

echo end time is `date` | tee -a test.log

I'm an idiot in Linux, please help, my dear friends!

My guess is that you dont have the path to CFX in your $PATH.
Try to specify the entire directory to cfx5solve, i.e. change
cfx5solve -def hawkmoth 60deg mesh2.def -par-local -partition 8
to
/software/ansys/16.0/v160/CFX/bin/cfx5solve -def mesh2.def
(change the bold stuff to where you have your installation.)
Im not sure what you mean with "hawkmoth 60deg", it shouldnt be directly after -def. Also, you might want to specify -start-method "Intel MPI Local Parallel" or whatever MPI you want to use.

Thank you for your quick reply,
"hawkmoth 60deg" is the def file name, so you mean I should write this line like '/software/ansys/16.0/v160/CFX/bin/cfx5solve -def hawkmoth 60deg mesh2.def -par-local -partition 8 -start-method -Intel MPI Local Parallel' ?

Best,

Avoid spaces in the file name. Use under_score instead.

/software/ansys/16.0/v160/CFX/bin/cfx5solve -def hawkmoth_60deg_mesh2.def -par-local -partition 8 -start-method "Intel MPI Local Parallel"
