Hello
I have an issue trying to compile OpenFoam-dev from sources.
I have compiled Paraview prior to that. Here is what I have:

root@milan-asus:/home/milan/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-dev# ./Allwmake -j
./Allwmake: 108: exec: wmake: not found

in this directory I have:

root@milan-asus:/home/milan/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-dev# ls -l -t
total 76
drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4096 Jun 26 09:06 etc
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 40 Jun 24 05:08 log.make
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Jun 24 01:49 wmake
drwxr-xr-x 16 root root 4096 Jun 24 01:49 tutorials
drwxr-xr-x 38 root root 4096 Jun 24 01:49 src
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Jun 24 01:49 doc
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jun 24 01:49 bin
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Jun 24 01:49 applications
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1109 Jun 24 01:49 Allwmake
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 35646 Jun 24 01:49 COPYING
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1673 Jun 24 01:49 README.org

I have (hopefully) followed the instructions given here:
https://openfoam.org/download/source...ling-openfoam/

My laptop is with a Ubuntu 15.04

many thanks

I managed to install it.

By following the open foam wiki page instructions, given here:
https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/I...u#Ubuntu_14.04

I followed the ubuntu 14.04 procedure (mine is 15.04). Had an issue with a " missing GMP library" but resolved that using Google.

I wonder what was the issue with following the opefoam.org link in the first take.

thanks

The problem here seems at first to be that you should have exited from root mode before downloading/unpacking the packages that have the OpenFOAM and ThirdParty source code.
Then again, the specific problem is that the OpenFOAM environment was not loaded in as explained here: https://openfoam.org/download/source...g-environment/

That's very strange... there should not have been any issues with the missing GMP library... the instructions on that wiki page include "libgmp-dev" in the package list to be installed... perhaps you didn't do step #3 from that wiki page?
