GroovyBC installtion help

Hi

I am referring GroovyBC installation from:
http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Contrib/groovyBC

I have downloaded groovyBC files at location:
@ OpenFOAM/user/groovyBC

wmake libso

I am facing error to install groovyBC (Error file is attached). Would be great to hear your views.

Thank you,
Pradeep

Hi Pradeep,

the error says, that it can't find bison. Is bison installed on your system?
check with

Code:

bison -V

If you don't have bison, do:

Code:

sudo apt-get install bison

(or any other package installation program)

After you installed bison, try to compile groovyBC again.

Regards
Squirrel

Spot-on diagnosis.

Never mind: he seems to have found the solution by himself (4h later he posted a more detailed question on groovyBC).

pradeepramesh: it would be nice if you find the solution by yourself to tell others so that they don't waste their time. Just answer you own question with something like "Solved it myself. Did not install bison".
Ah. And by the way: don't post screenshots from error messages. They are not searchable. So nobody will find the problem (and therefor the solution) when using "Search"
