[OpenFOAM.com] unable to run paraFoam

tilek · August 23, 2021, 10:08

Hi,

I recently installed OpenFOAM on Windows 10.

I am unable to run paraFoam, as I get errors similar to this

OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-v2012/ThirdParty/platforms/linux64/gcc-6.3.0/lib64/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.26' not found (required by /usr/bin/../lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpqApplicationComponents-pv5.7.so.1)

I think I have to build ThirdParty programs using apt-get as the one copied with tar file must have been compiled on a different Ubuntu version.

Can someone guide me through how to do it using apt-get, or is there a simpler solution or other forums I have to report this to?

thanks
TA

Forget paraFoam and just use a Windows binary paraview. Do your post-processing on the windows side.
