Hi,

I am trying to install to install OF 1.5 (as downloaded from the OF website) on my OpenSUSE 11.0. My OpenSUSE 11.0 is a virtual machine but that shouldn't make any difference.

So far I have:

Downloaded the files from the OF website.

Unpacked them in OpenFOAM directory.

Added '. HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5.x/etc/bashrc' to my .bashrc, and sourced it.


Then I am a bit confused, should the foam installation be set-up now or must I also compile it?

At this stage I tried to run one of the tutorial cases (icoFoam) but blockMesh and icoFoam and any other program I ran got an error saying it was missing some library file.


So then I tried to compile OF.
I moved to the 'OpenFOAM-1.5' directory and executed './Allwmake'
But this got quite a few errors.
I resourced the bashrc and tried again but it still gets errors.
The first error is:
SOURCE=OPwrite.C ; g++ -m32 -Dlinux -DDP -Wall -Wno-strict-aliasing -Wextra -Wno-unused-parameter -Wold-style-cast -O3 -DNoRepository -ftemplate-depth-40 -I/home/philipc/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty/lam-7.1.4/platforms/linuxGccDPOpt/include -IlnInclude -I. -I/home/philipc/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/src/OpenFOAM/lnInclude -I/home/philipc/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/src/OSspecific/Unix/lnInclude -fPIC -pthread -c $SOURCE -o Make/linuxGccDPOptLAM/OPwrite.o
