Greetings to all,
Well, the OSMesa option is useful for when you have no rendering farm available, but you still have well over 50GHz of combined computing power in i686/x86_64 power The Mesa option should be useful for scenarios when you really need ParaView working and the currently available drivers for the graphics card are really bad... thus, better slow then nothing Although by what I investigated, NVidia and ATI have their own OpenGL libraries, but Intel seems to be closely tied with the Mesa3D project. So, without getting my hands on some hardware that jams up, I can't confirm myself how things are working. Well, it should be just a question of time Best regards, Bruno

Bruno,
Thanks to you, I managed to install Openfoam 1.6.x on my x86_64 machine running Ubuntu 10.4 using gcc 4.4.3. I used your script to get this far. I ran the blockmesher on the lid cavity case and it seems to work. Just one small problem but with paraview this time. When I try to start paraview, I get a segmentation fault. Any ideas please? Regards, Saif |

Hi Saif,
Well, at least the computer didn't freeze like it has happened to some users. What graphics card do you have on your machine? And what drivers have you installed for it? If you have an ATI graphics card like marval has (see post #61), or even if you have an NVidia card, then try to do what he did (post #77): Quote:
Best regards, Bruno Edit: the instructions I sent to Saif are now available here: Installing OpenFOAM 1.6 on Ubuntu 10.4 post #6

I am now working on Ubuntu 10.04. I have failed to install OpenFOAM1.6 with this script installOF.sh. I am eager to get help. Here is the error:

Greetings Vedi and welcome to the forum!
OK, that is one strange error... Can you please describe the steps you have taken to make that happen? Additionally, can you please attach the installOF.log file? Because that file should have a complete log of the messages you got! I believe the specific problem related to the error you got comes from far before those error messages you've posted! Best regards, Bruno

Maybe the trouble is here:
Build gcc-4.3.3: Build process didn't finished with success. Please check the log file for more information: /build_gcc.log My gcc version is 4.4.3 I found the reason why I cann't upload the file, the Max Filesize is 97.7KB, but mine is 560KB. Last edited by vedi2008; June 8, 2010 at 11:18. |

Now I have compressed the log file and hope it can be uploaded this time.
Please rename the file name to be installOF.rar and then decompress it. Best regards, Vedi |

Greetings Vedi,
Well, you got unlucky... the server where OpenFOAM's git is hosted was down when you tried to install OpenFOAM. The indication is this: Code:
------------------------------------------------------ Applying patches to bashrc and settings.sh ... ------------------------------------------------------ patching file bashrc Hunk #1 FAILED at 105. 1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file bashrc.rej patching file bashrc Hunk #1 FAILED at 93. 1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file bashrc.rej patching file paraFoam Hunk #1 FAILED at 75. 1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file paraFoam.rej patching file ./wmake Hunk #1 FAILED at 55. Hunk #2 FAILED at 152. 2 out of 2 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file ./wmake.rej patching file mpfr-2.4.1/log2.c patching file mpfr-2.4.1/log1p.c patching file mpfr-2.4.1/log10.c patching file makeQt patching file ./makeParaView Hunk #4 succeeded at 183 with fuzz 2. patching file ./tools/makeParaViewFunctions patching file AllwmakeLibccmio Solution - Just try to execute the script again, after running the following lines: Code:
cd $HOME/OpenFOAM rm -rf OpenFOAM 1.6.x rm -rf ThirdParty-1.6.x ThirdParty-1.6 Sorry about that, we should have put in a safe guard for the possibility of the git server being down We will fix it in the next coding storm Best regards, Bruno

Could you please let me know what the root folder name is for the installation package? What I mean is that I don't want the cascaded duplicative folder names such as "/openFOAM/openFOAM".
Thank you in advance for your help. |

Hi !
I've used the http://openfoam-ubuntu.googlecode.com/hg/installOF.sh script several times with different parameters, and I also still get the same results: rickard@SkunkWorks:/Data/FlygFiler/Projekt20100612$ startFoam Building on 4 cores rickard@SkunkWorks:/Data/FlygFiler/Projekt20100612$ paraFoam created temporary 'Projekt20100612.OpenFOAM' QInotifyFileSystemWatcherEngine::addPaths: inotify_add_watch failed: No such file or directory QFileSystemWatcher: failed to add paths: /home/rickard/.config/ibus/bus Bus:pen: Can not get ibus-daemon's address. IBusInputContext::createInputContext: no connection to ibus-daemon Segmentation fault rickard@SkunkWorks:/Data/FlygFiler/Projekt20100612$ A new fresh Linux install has taken place twice with no differens in results. I think some thing has change sins 22/5 when the script was last updated. Or has anyone any hints about how to fix the problem? Regards Rickard |

Take the default folder you mentioned as example, should I creat the full default folder $HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6.x or just creat the folder named $HOME/OpenFOAM and then the installation package will create subfolder /OpenFOAM-1.6.x by itself? |

Greetings Rickard and Sam,
Rickard: I'll try to run the install script on a virtual machine with KUbuntu 10.04 next weekend and try to replicate the issue you got. Sam: Quote:
The only way you would get cascaded folders, would be if you define in the dialog box that asks for the path where to install OpenFOAM, typed for example: Code:
/home/user/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM But if you want to pre-create the $HOME/OpenFOAM folder, feel free to do it! But I think that creating the folder $HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6.x will confuse the install procedure, more specifically git might complain about the folder already existing and won't clone the repository as a security precaution. Best regards, Bruno

And it worked! But to make a stream line takes a very long time.
And still it complains about no connection to the Ibus daemon. Regards / Rickard |

Hallo all,
first I want to thank you for the great installation script. I tried it on my fresh installed ubuntu 10.04 and it worked fine meshing and running the cavity case. All my 6 cores were detected. But I have a problem with running ParaView. I used command "paraFoam" after running the cavity case and the message: 138: paraview: not found was coming. Can you please help me? ------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------ Build ParaView: Build process didn't finished with success. Please check the log file for more information: /home/markus/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-1.6.x/build_ParaView.log You can post it at this forum thread: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...er-ubuntu.html You can also verify that thread for other people who might have had the same problems. ------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------ ParaView isn't available where it is expected: /home/markus/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-1.6.x/paraview-3.6.1/platforms/linuxGcc/bin/paraview Therefore it isn't possible to proceed with building the plugin PV3FoamReader. ------------------------------------------------------ Last edited by mystix; June 18, 2010 at 06:16. |
