[OpenFOAM.com] Installing OpenFoam-v1706 on Ubuntu 20.04

Shahin123 · May 23, 2022, 10:14

Hello,

I have been trying to install OpenFoam-v1706 on Ubuntu 20.04. For doing that I have been following the instructions in (https://hystrath.github.io/installation/). I added "source $HOME/OpenFOAM-v1706/etc/bashrc" also to my bashrc file. After running "./Allwmake" in $WM_PROJECT_DIR folder, I face some errors that you can see in the attachment.
I would be very thankful if someone could tell me how I can solve this issue.
The thing is I tried to proceed with the installation. To do so, based on instructions I must go to $WM_PROJECT_USER_DIR. When I run "echo $WM_PROJECT_USER_DIR" it gives the path to this folder, but when I run "cd $WM_PROJECT_USER_DIR", it says no such file or directory!
Any comment that would solve my problem is highly appreciated

I am in the exact same situation, having the exact same issue. I have a completely fresh installation of Ubuntu 20.04 and just want to get dsmcFOAM+ working.

If you need that directory, just create it with mkdir.
