Dear all,
I am quite new to OF and am experiencing some problems with the installation: I have unpacked the source & binaries and installed in /home/indy/OpenFOAM I changed the .bashrc in the home/indy folder and it looks as it is sourced correctly. However, when I run the foamInstallation test I get the following: Executing ./foamInstallationTest: Checking basic setup... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shell: bash Host: dhcppc1 OS: Linux version 2.6.22.5-31-default User: indy User_config: /home/indy/.bashrc Foam_config: /home/indy/.OpenFOAM-1.4.1/bashrc sourced correctly.

The foam installation contains 3 critical error(s). Review the output for warning messages and consult the installation guide for trouble shooting.

(the error given by: Set correct path to installation 'WM_PROJECT_INST_DIR' in /home/olli/.foam2.3/bashrc) And secondly, are the other errors dependend on the first or what would I have to do to solve this? Thank you very much for any help !!!!!!!! Indy |

Hi Indiana,
note the section: Pinging_localHost Successful yes Test_rsh: Not_active* yes Test_ssh: Not_active* yes FATAL ERROR: No remote shell available. Foam1.4.1 enviroment requires either ssh and/or rsh. Contact your system administrator. I suggest you install openssh and try again. On my system it is in packages openssh-client and openssh-server. On some distributions simply installing ssh pulls both of these in. Note that you also have a potential problem with java. I don't know if that is going to bite you. Regards, Graeme. |

Hi Graeme,
thanks for you help,.......! what i dont understand is, that I have openssh installed (version 4.6, came with SUSE 10.3) so it should actually be fine I have luckily solved the java problem by pointing to the SUSE 10.3 java path which looks ok now. I am not sure if the $LAM_ARCH_PATH has to be specified (isnt this just for parallel computing?) Further on, I have followed the installation guide and am stuck now at the first test: indy@dhcppc1:~/OpenFOAM/indy-1.4.1/run/tutorials> icoFoam dotFoam(const fileName&) : Couldn't find file /home/indy//home/indy/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.4.1/controlDict or /home/indy/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.4.1//home/indy/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.4.1/controlDic t Has this something to do with the environmental variables in the .bashrc file Sorry again for the long post...!!

Not a problem. > what i dont understand is, that I have openssh installed (version 4.6, came with SUSE 10.3) so it should actually be fine That seems odd. Have you tried 'ssh dhcppc1' from a shell prompt? > I have luckily solved the java problem by pointing to the SUSE 10.3 java path which looks ok now. > I am not sure if the $LAM_ARCH_PATH has to be specified (isnt this just for parallel computing?) Yes, I think so. > Further on, I have followed the installation guide and am stuck now at the first test: > indy@dhcppc1:~/OpenFOAM/indy-1.4.1/run/tutorials> icoFoam > dotFoam(const fileName&) : Couldn't find file /home/indy//home/indy/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.4.1/controlDict or > /home/indy/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.4.1//home/indy/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.4.1/controlDic t This doesn't look like any error message I've seen. It looks like you tried to run the icoFoam solver with no arguments, but when I do that I get an error message that looks quite different. Try changing directories to the .../run/tutorials/icoFoam directory like it says in the README, and run ./Allclean blockMesh . cavity icoFoam . cavity Maybe it'll behave differently. > Has this something to do with the environmental variables in the .bashrc file There are some obviously wrong paths mentioned in that error message, but I don't know where they're coming from. Did you just add the line . $HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.4.1/.OpenFOAM-1.4.1/bashrc to the ~/.bashrc file like the README says? > Sorry again for the long post...!! It's okay. Regards, Graeme. |

Hi,
I heard that the ssh FATAL ERRROR isn't such a problem for stand alone cases, so that should be fine I hope.. I did the ./Allclean commands and it did not change anything. I copied the tutorials to the directory as it was in the README file... same as with the sourcing . $HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.4.1/.OpenFOAM-1.4.1/bashrc to the ~/.bashrc file if anybody has an idea, that would be most appreciated.. thanks |

I just tried icoFoam without a working sshd, and it works fine, so you're right - it isn't that. I can't help thinking that the fact that it's looking for the controlDict in /home/indy//home/indy/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.4.1/controlDict or /home/indy/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.4.1//home/indy/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.4.1/controlDic t has something to do with the problem - like your environment isn't set up properly. Notice the repeats and the occurrences of // - not good. Failing that, I'm almost out of ideas. Finally, what type of CPU do you have? Regards, Graeme. |

Hi ,
i had the same "fatal error", ... FATAL ERROR: No remote shell available. Foam1.4.1 enviroment requires either ssh and/or rsh. Contact your system administrator. ... even if i was able to run the icoFoam tutorial. After that thread i opened synaptic packet manager, ad installed: ssh , that also automatically installed openssh-server . I already had openssh-client installed but , the fatal error was fixed after i installed ssh . ... Test_rsh: Unsuccessful_connection_refused* yes Test_ssh: Successful yes (*) Only one of rsh or ssh is required by the Foam enviroment. ... I run ubntu 8.10. Bye |
