Hi,

Does it work if you do this?

1. logout
2. login

or do you get the same message?
mdk.. is mandrake right?
and I think it runs gnome
by default, which for some reason refuses to
update the environment variables in a new window.

[ervin@isi014 bin]$ logout
bash: logout: not login shell: use `exit'

mandrake 10.0, it runs KDE (by default)

Try the following:

Type
$FOAM_APPBIN/icoFoam

If it starts an openFoam executable with an error message, then your PATH variable is somehow set incorrectly (unlikely).

If it says "file not found" then you have installed the binary package incorrectly.

If something else, well at least we will have eliminated some possible causes.

Thanks Eugene!
I haven't installed the binary package correctly before.
Now that I did, the foamInstallationTest gives no errors.
I'll begin now to learn how to use it.

Thanks again to all the OpenFOAM team.

Hi,

You should respect the directory structure as described on the download page of OpenFOAM.

For example:

Make a "OpenFOAM" directory in /home/yourusername/
Put here the OpenFOAM-1.1.General.gtgz and the OpenFOAM-1.1.linuxOpt.gtgz files. Uncompress them from the command line. You'll get a OpenFOAM-1.1 directory.
Make a "linux" directory in /home/yourusername/OpenFOAM/
Put here the gcc, java and paraview compressed files. Uncompress them from a terminal.

Then make a "yourusername-1.1" directory in home/yourusername/OpenFOAM/ and copy the tutorials here.

Thank you for your feedback!
but the directory structure gived by the openfoam is "$HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.1/"
not include the "yourusername".
what is the difference
thank you

$HOME == /home/{username} if you do not log on with root

you can try like this

cd $HOME
pwd

Most likely you did not install the binary package. Try it again! If you have a 32 bit processor download: OpenFOAM-1.3.linuxGcc4DPOpt.gtgz and install it.
For a step by step procedure you cand take a look at the following thread: Installation Steps

I hope you will find that useful,

Hi Rita,
For a 64 bit machine the steps should be:

0. cd
1. wget http://ovh.dl.sourceforge.net/source...3.General.gtgz
2. wget http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/foam/OpenFOAM-1.3.linuxAMD64Gcc4DPO pt.gtgz
3. wget http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/sou...linuxAMD64.tgz
4. wget http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sou...linuxAMD64.tgz
5. wget http://kent.dl.sourceforge.net/sourc...linuxAMD64.tgz
6. mkdir -p ~/OpenFOAM/linuxAMD64
7. mkdir ~/OpenFOAM/jobControl
8. cd OpenFOAM
9. tar -zxvf ../OpenFOAM-1.3.General.gtgz
10. tar -zxvf ../OpenFOAM-1.3.linuxAMD64Gcc4DPOpt.gtgz
11. cd linux
12. tar -zxvf ../../gcc-4.1.0.linuxAMD64.tgz
13. tar -zxvf ../../paraview-2.4.2.linuxAMD64.tgz
14. tar -zxvf ../../j2sdk1.4.2_05.linuxAMD64.tgz
15. cd
16. echo ". ~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.3/.OpenFOAM-1.3/bashrc" >> .bashrc

That should be all!
