Hello OpenFOAM Gurus,

I am trying to install OpenFOAM but I don't seem to have much success. That is why I turn to you, who might disclose the "secrets of the gods" to me. Anyways, jokes aside, I get two critical errors when I run foamInstallationTest (see results below).

as for gcc I downloaded the pack from the OpenFOAM website and gcc is indeed in the path /utrc/home/ccamantig/OpenFOAM/linux/gcc-4.2.1/bin/gcc

as for icoFoam I tar-ed the binary pack as the instructions specify.

Any suggestions?

Hello Cesar,

try

which gcc

according to your error message it should point to /usr/bin/gcc. Re-source the foam-environment by

. ~/.bashrc

and do "which gcc" again. Now the foam-gcc path should be displayed.

Now it should work.

If foamInstallationTest doesn't run successfully afterwards check the environment variable with

echo $WM_COMPILER_DIR

and have a look if it points to the correct directory (e.g. using "ls ...").


Regards Markus

OK, thanks a lot.
I follow your advice and reading something I sow the problem was the directory's names.
I solved it changing the directory names, I write:

linux instead linux64

gcc-4.1.0-64 instead gcc-4.1.0

whit this two changes I solve the problem. Note that this is for OpenFOAM 1.3

After that I run the foamInstallationTest and I have just one "CRITICAL ERROR" (also in Software Version part), this is:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Software Version Location
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
gcc 4.1.0 /home/cebz/OpenFOAM/linux/gcc-4.1.0-64/bin/gcc
java 1.4.2_05 /home/cebz/OpenFOAM/linux/j2sdk1.4.2_05/bin/java
gzip 1.3.12 /usr/bin/gzip
tar 1.3.12 /bin/tar
icoFoam *** not installed ***
CRITICAL ERROR

I am sure that exist the icoFoam directory and is in :
/home/cebz/OpenFOAM/cebz-1.3/run/tutorials/icoFoam

Well, this is about foamInstalationTest.

When I try to generate the mesh for cavity I have the followin:

cebz@cebz:~> run
cebz@cebz:~/OpenFOAM/cebz-1.3/run> cd tutorials/
cebz@cebz:~/OpenFOAM/cebz-1.3/run/tutorials> cd icoFoam/
cebz@cebz:~/OpenFOAM/cebz-1.3/run/tutorials/icoFoam> blockMesh . cavity
bash: blockMesh: command not found

And when i try to run FoamX...

cebz@cebz:~/OpenFOAM/cebz-1.3/run/tutorials/icoFoam> FoamX
Starting NameServer with inet:cebz:1234 ...
/home/cebz/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.3/bin/runFoamXHB: line 122: nsd: command not found.

I really don't know why is that. The fact is the foamInstallationTest say that I have just one critical error.
