Now you can download openFoam 2.3.x for windows from the give link (http://www.cfdsupport.com/openfoam-for-windows.html). I have downloaded and checking it right now. There is ready-to-install .exe files. No-cross compiling is needed and it looks quite promising.
There is no read-me file so I am not sure about the sequence of installation. If would be nice to hear what everyone else has to say. |

I am not sure about that you can ask the support at cfdsupport.

Hi all!
I'm newbie to OpenFOAM. I tried to install it using cfdsupport.com instructions. But when I try to run example icoFoam I recieve this error: -bash: blockmesh: command not found What is the reason? Thanks in advance, Theodor C |

Yes, you should create the directory yourself. Wang@NIT |

You should also install MS-MPI contained in the installation directory. The file name is MSMPISetup. Wang@NIT |

@ Logrus and @ deepinheart: Did you update your windows installation recently? May be some one more expert can comment if updating windows has something to do with this.
Also have you tried re-installing openFoam from scratch? |

I installed OpenFOAM on windows using cygwin64. I'm trying to do the first tutorial, but when I run blockMesh it says:
admin@-PC /opt/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.3.x/tutorials/incompressible/icoFoam/cavity $ blockMesh /opt/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.3.x/platforms/cygwin64mingw-w64DPOpt/bin/blockMesh.exe: error while loading shared libraries: ?: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Whereas the file is in that location, as far as I can tell. In fact it can find the directory, and in Windows I can see the file is there. admin@-PC /opt/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.3.x/tutorials/incompressible/icoFoam/cavity $ cd C:/cygwin64/opt/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.3.x/platforms/cygwin64mingw-w64DPOpt/bin admin@-PC /opt/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.3.x/platforms/cygwin64mingw-w64DPOpt/bin $ blockMesh /opt/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.3.x/platforms/cygwin64mingw-w64DPOpt/bin/blockMesh.exe: error while loading shared libraries: ?: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory It seems to me this error is different from the 'command not found' blockmesh error? Does anyone have a clue what I might be doing wrong? |

1) Start "OpenFOAM-2.3.x-reg.bat" with admin rights (right click -> Run as Administrator). The install instructions from cfdsupport.com are missing this crucial step. Admin rights are needed for the registry key "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionMana ger\kernel".
2) Don't source $WM_PROJECT_DIR/etc/bashrc in bash like you are used to for standard installations of OpenFOAM unter *NIX systems. 3) Simply run the solver (paths are searched automatically). Cheers Andras |

So I reinstalled the whole thing again and blockmesh is working now. I think I may have installed the components in the wrong order or skipped ms-mpi before
Both blockMesh and icoFoam work now, and paraview works as well (also from cygwin), however paraFoam returns the error: -bash: paraFoam: command not found. I've seen this error on this forum on other OS's, but I couldn't find anything for the Windows situation. Has anyone had this problem? Any thoughts on how to solve it? Thanks in advance! |
