Dear All,

I am trying to install OpenFOAM 1.7.1 on Ubuntu Maverick. Everything goes well, until I install Paraview.

Following this page, I get:
Code:
samiam@penrose:~/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-1.7.1$ ./makeParaView

Greetings Samuele,

CMake is missing in your Ubuntu box. You can install it by running:
Code:
sudo apt-get install cmake
But if you don't feel like spending time building a custom version of ParaView, you can:
  1. Install ParaView 3.8.1 built for Ubuntu 10.10, by running:
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install paraview
  2. Quote:

    Now open the file "$WM_PROJECT_DIR/bin/paraFoam" in your favorite simple text editor and replace every entry ".OpenFOAM" with ".foam". Now save and close the file.
    And voilá, you now should have a fully working paraFoam script at your disposal! Along with ParaView 3.8.0, with no further building required
    Well, in this case, ParaView 3.8.1
Best regards,
Bruno

I hope you're not facing the mysterious "missing cmake" problem that I went through. See:

http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...directory.html

Something that the video driver update did fixed. Surely it's just an environment variable or something...

You wouldn't by any chance still have that Linux box up and running, would you? Because that error of an application not starting and giving the error "file not found" or something like that, is sometimes related to an actually missing and unnamed library that the application depends on.
In your case, running the following command, on a working system and on a non working system, would help isolate the problem:
Code:
ldd cmake
I say unnamed, because ldd might not be able to say which library the application really depends on, in case it isn't already available in the system! Therefore isolation of the missing library can only occur by comparing the differences between in a working and in a non-working system.

Best regards,
Bruno
