Hi everyone,

I'm completely new in OpenFOAM, and right now I'm trying to install OpenFOAM 1.7.1 on my laptop which has Fedora 14 as OS. When I run the foamInstallationTest, I get this critical error, it seems unable to find icoFoam:

Greetings Francesco and welcome to the Forum!

Well, installing OpenFOAM 1.7.1 in Fedora 14 is pretty much the same as in Fedora 13, so here is some another thread about the same issue: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...dora-13-a.html

Best regards and good luck!
Bruno

Thanks Bruno,
As you posted in that previous discussion, I did these two steps.
I installed the packages I need with the command:
yum install gcc gcc-c++ binutils-devel flex git-core wget cmake qt4-devel python-devel redline-devel bison
and then I compiled the software. Unfortunately the errors are still there, when I run the foamInstallationTest.
I attached the make.log file, do you have some other advice for me?
Thanks a lot.

Hi Francesco,

I believe you didn't fully read the thread... in the post #8 I mentioned:

In $WM_DIR/rules/linux64Gcc/c++, change LINKEXE to this:
Code:
LINKEXE = $(CC) $(c++FLAGS) -Xlinker --add-needed
This is what is missing in your set-up.

Best regards and good luck!
Bruno

Thank you Bruno,
I read in depth the thread and since I have Fedora i686 i changed the LINEXE line in the file "$WM_DIR/rules/linuxGcc/c++" and so Allwmake was able to compile the OpenFOAM. The foamInstallationTest doesn't return any problems.
But unfortunately my troubles aren't terminated , and I hope also your words of wisdom!
I tried to compile ParaView executing the following:
cd $WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR
./Allclean
./makeParaView

and makeParaView returned me this error:

** Error: cannot find qmake either at $QMAKE_PATH or in current $PATH

Do you have any further ideas?

Thank you very!

Francesco

Hi Francesco,

The quickest solution is to install ParaView 3.8.1 that Fedora 14 has in its repository and then follow point #7 from this blog post: Using the official pre-built ParaView 3.8.0 version with OpenFOAM...
This way you can use ParaView's built-in plug-in for reading OpenFOAM's case data format, without the need to spend any more time building ParaView and/or Qt and therefore get to the good stuff of using OpenFOAM

Best regards and good luck!
Bruno

Great Bruno!
In the end all the things went right. Also paraView works fine. I can't wait to get the good stuff of using OpenFOAM.
Thanks for all.

Hi ruma,

To answer some of your questions scattered over several posts and threads:

Quote:

Nope, it's
Code:
foamInstallationTest
Quote:

Yep, simply find the path to the file bashrc in OpenFOAM-1.7.1/etc. Suppose it's "/opt/openfoam171/etc/bashrc". Then, do
Code:
gedit ~/.bashrc
and add
Code:
. /opt/openfoam171/etc/bashrc
(notice the dot (".") at the beginning of the line!), save and close the file, and source your bashrc by typing
Code:
. ~/.bashrc
(notice the dots again!)

Quote:
pls give details.
Indeed, to fix your problem more details are needed

I hve also attached make.log.tar file. The last section of ./Allwmake file says Thirdparty shud be kept under $home/OpenFOAM.

**** John : Will you pls check this point? and also
wmake

OpenFOAM uses wmake to perform compilation (building, linking) of its C++ source code into executable code. wmake is called from the Allwmake scripts during the initial build of the complete OpenFOAM project but can be executed directly to update the compilation of any of the OpenFOAM components:
  • all invocations can have an optional directory:
    • wmake $FOAM_UTILITIES/mesh/manipulation/checkMesh
    • wmake libso $FOAM_SRC/finiteVolume
  • recursively build all applications in current or specified directory:
    • wmake all
    • wmake all <dir>
  • build any single object or executable:
    • wmake Make/linux64Gcc4DPOpt/<object>.o
    • wmake <executable>
  • build any single shared library:
    • wmake libso
    • wmake libso <lib dir>


**** After ./Allwmake run ..when I give ./foamInstallationTest ..it gives me error

dot files are nt defined.

Hi Ruma,

Installing as root is a bad idea. The result is that your user has no write permission and that the environment variable etc are not sourced. If you're compiling it's better to make a directory called OpenFOAM in your user home, put the OpenFOAM files inside that dir, and add the source line to you user's $HOME/.bashrc. Then, source your bashrc and run Allwmake.

So as far as i understand the problem is in installation of Scotch software.

Hi Yuri,

Maybe ld can't find zlib or the right zlib. Perhaps it helps to add the location of the right zlib to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable. For instance, if zlib lives in /usr/lib/libz.so, then you could add something like below to $HOMA/.bashrc and then source your bashrc:
Code:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/libz.so:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Then, source your bashrc and run Allwmake.


Hi Gijs,

I hve small q's. If I dont install under common file system i.e /usr/local/OpenFOAM/...
then how other users can use OpenFOAM. if it is only my /home/ dir, then probably only I can run OpenFOAM. I like to keep it under cooom file system . Then in that case, how to set up environment giving path to my .bashrc file

What I can do that I add the path of OpenFOAM in my .bashrc file path set up.

JonW will become famous soon enough
fieldy77, why would you want to do Allmake in ThirdParty? (unless you want to use paraFoam)
I only do Allmake in OpenFOAM1.7.x and all works fine (I use paraview only).
Note I tried once to do Allmake without having ThirdParty present in the OF dir, and got lot of errors. So apparently for openfoam to compile, ThirdParty has to be present (likely because of openMPI and other tools, which works fine on mine system). Again, see http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...tml#post301689
