anybody can give me some tips? thanks in advance.

[jianxiyao]

I have solved the problem :Error parsing proxy URL wpad://: Unsupported scheme `wpad'.

The new one is "error: open of /home/yao/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext/ThirdParty/rpmBuild/RPMS/x86_64/cmake-2.8.8-linux64Gcc46DPOpt.x86_64.rpm"

I think I miss something!?

[jianxiyao]

And "tools/makeThirdPartyFunctionsForRPM:line 158: rpmbuild: not found command"

[andyru]

@wenterodt:
Thank you very much for the explanation!

Everything worked perfektly, also with:
#QMake version 2.01a
#Using Qt version 4.8.1 in /usr/lib64
I can confirm this!

Best regards,

Andreas
