Hi!

I am a newbie with OpenSuse and OpenFOAM and probably ran in each possible problem.

I've created two users on a workstation (OpenSuse 12.2).
Subsequently I've installed OpenFoam. First in user1's file structure.
It was no problem to run first tutorial case cavity, loged in as user 1:
/home/user1/OpenFOAM/user1/run/tutorials/incompressible/icoFoam/cavity

Then I've tried to install OpenFOAM as root, to be a bit smarter, in /opt/OpenFOAM. The installation procedure worked well again. I logged in again as user1 and started blockMesh in the tutorial case cavity. Everything worked fine.
Then I've added another user to the system: user2, checked the rights and tried to start the mesher.
The installation folder /opt/OpenFOAM/user, where the tutorial case is saved, has following rights: drwxrwxrwx.
OpenFOAM-2.1.1 directory: /opt/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.1.1 has following rights:
drwxrwxr-x
The mesher does not start and I get following error message:
blockMesh: error while loading shared libraries: libblockMesh.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

libblockMesh.so exists in /opt/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.1.1/platforms/linux64GccDPOpt/lib

Why is it not possible for user2 to use OpenFOAM that was installed as root in /opt/OpenFOAM!

Do I have to manually adjust environment variables?
I ran /opt/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.1.1/bin --> foamInstallationTest and veriefied all environment variables to be sure that the official installation path to /opt/OpenFOAM was set correctly. Since I've first stupidly installed OpenFOAM in user1's file structure I wanted to control the correct settings of all e-variables. Their values seem to be all right.

Please help me! I've spent three weeks about that problem but I still could not solve it! Thanks a lot!
