How to install OpenFOAM on centOS 6.5 without rights of administrator? I have found some guides, but they all install it in the root mode. Thanks a lot!

You could download openfoam from github and then you need to modify the location of install directory and project directory at etc/bashrc file. Especially, you need to look at export FOAM_INST_DIR

Greetings to all!
The majority of the installation instructions provided at openfoamwiki.net for CentOS, as listed here: https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/C...FOAM_on_CentOS - have instructions on which packages are needed to be installed with root permissions in the CentOS system. After installing the packages needed, the remaining installation instructions do not require root/administrator permissions. Without specific details on which packages are already installed or are not installed in the machine where you are using CentOS 6.5, it's not easy to guide someone on how to proceed. By running the following command, you will get a complete list of packages already installed on that system: Code:
rpm -qa > log.installed.files gzip < log.installed.files > log.installed.files.gz Beyond this, I have three other suggestions:
Best regards, Bruno

Could you please introduce the installation process in detail? I have downloaded the OpenFOAM and modified the location, but I have no idea about the export FOAM_INST_DIR.
