SloanRenumber, compilation error.

Hello,
I have got this error. Please advise.

Hi,

Since SloanRenumber depends on boost, you have to set BOOST_ARCH_PATH environment variable to the path where boost is installed (so $(BOOST_ARCH_PATH)/include contains boost folder with header files and $(BOOST_ARCH_PATH)/lib contains libraries). By default it points to

Code:

export BOOST_ARCH_PATH=$WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR/platforms/$WM_ARCH$WM_COMPILER/$boost_version

If you install boost using package manager usually it is safe to set BOOST_ARCH_PATH to /usr (though on RHEL clones you need to correct src/renumber/SloanRenumber/Make/options, since libraries are stored in /usr/lib64).

You can follow installation guide here:

https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/I...CentOS_SL_RHEL

or here

https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/I...M-3.0.x/Ubuntu

Though they both assume that you ADORE building third-party software from sources.

boost and boost libraries missed

Hello Alexey,
Thank you for replay.

I have just compiled OpenFOAM. I did not install all dependences. After your post I had realised that I do not have boost and boost libraries since it is not mentioned at Arch Linux OpenFOAM Wiki.

Kind Regards
