Installation of Netgen in SuSE Linux 92
Hope it is OK to ask a question about installing Netgen on this OpenFOAM forum.
I have been using Netgen in Windows and OpenFOAM in SuSE 9,2 for a while. Obviously it's not ideal to reboot to switch program, so I have tried to install Netgen in SuSE Linux 9.2, but have run into some problems: In the README.INSTALL it is described to hack the makefile by adding: setenv MACHINE LINUX when running "make", I get the following errormessage: Makefile:4: *** missing separator. Stop. Anyone? Needless to say I'm not very experienced in Linux. Best Regards lars Edvardsen |
Sounds like your makefile got
Sounds like your makefile got 'corrupted'. Did you edit or copy/paste your Makefile under Windows or copy it from Windows? This might cause problems. Just unpack the original sources.
This is what I get: Unix> setenv MACHINE LINUX Unix> make cd libsrc; make make[1]: Entering directory `/home/pinky2/mattijs/pub/ngs44/libsrc' make[2]: Entering directory `/home/pinky2/mattijs/pub/ngs44/libsrc/linalg' .. |

Thanks for reply, Mattijs
I found out that the first problem was that despite I had bash on my computer (SuSE 9,2), I had to use the command "export MACHINE=LINUX" instead of "setenv.... Anyway, I still get error messages. What I have tried to so far according to tips in the REDME.INTALL file is: - Problems with Tcl.init: export TCL_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/tcl8.4 export TK_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/tk8.4 export TIX_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/tix8.1 -which is the versions and location according to my installation.

You'missing some files (GL/, tcl.h etc.) in /usr/include.
Your can install them from your suse9.2 cd. Just install all of the development libraries and sources . |

Sorry to keep nagging, Mattijs, but I think I'm almost there. Installing development packages helped. The error messages has been narrowed down to:

"class mesh;" solved that problem. (I'm afraid I don't know enough about C++ to know how to ad a -fpermissive flag, or what it means) Then it was the thing about right version of the tkInt.h file in the togl directory, wich was fixed. But I still keep getting errormessages, now its: lars@linux:~/ngs44> make gcc -c -I./libsrc/include -I/opt/OpenCASCADE5.2/ros/inc -I./ngsolve/include -Ilibsrc/interface -DOPENGL -O2 -I/usr/include/GL3.5 -DLINUX -DOPENGL -ftemplate-depth-99 -finline-limit=20000 -funroll-loops -DNGSOLVE ngtcltk/demoview.cpp -o ngtcltk/demoview.o ./libsrc/include/../general/array.hpp: In constructor 'netgen::ARRAY<t,>::ARRAY(int) [with T = netgen::InterpolationPoint<netgen::vec<3> > [3], int BASE = 0]': ngtcltk/demoview.hpp:116: instantiated from 'netgen::InterpolationSpline<s>::InterpolationSpli ne(S) [with S = netgen::Vec<3>]' ngtcltk/demoview.cpp:315: instantiated from here ./libsrc/include/../general/array.hpp:155: error: invalid use of undefined type 'class netgen::InterpolationPoint<netgen::vec<3> >' ngtcltk/demoview.hpp:74: error: declaration of 'class netgen::InterpolationPoint<netgen::vec<3> >' make: *** [ngtcltk/demoview.o] Error 1 lars@linux:~/ngs44>116 Still hoping, Lars |

Actually I also had problems installing netgen on suse so then I installed it on win xp under cygwin. It works fine... You should try that if everything else fails.
How/where did you install Tcl/Tk + Tix + Mesa? In which directories? Did you follow the installation instructions (readme's) and get no errors? As I remember it, I once screwed up the Mesa installation and then I got tired of trying... Also, as I remember it, tcl/tk should be in your path but I also think you can install some of these programs with the suse installation (yast?) program. I think I'll try installing it on suse again later but I agree it's not straightforward. I don't know if it helped you anything but perhaps you should try the cygwin solution. |

Hello, Lars.
I don't know w
Hello, Lars.
I don't know what's wrong with you installation, but today I got netgen running on my home computer after I saw it being installed on another computer by a more experienced linux user. Both systems ran suse 9.3, and I can see that you're almost there since the last problem I had also was with the togl/ directory (the first problems was correctly as Mattijs writes about missing files in /usr/include). Once you get to this problem below which I've now seen 2 times today on 2 different linux pc's: togl/togl.cpp:144: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of `Sorry' with no type togl/togl.cpp:144: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of `you' with no type togl/togl.cpp:144: error: syntax error before `have' Then you'll have to follow the instructions from the netgen homepage section trouble shooting: Quote:
#elif TK_MAJOR_VERSION==8 && TK_MINOR_VERSION==4 && TK_RELEASE_SERIAL==9 # include "tkInt.h" #else Sorry, you will have to edit togl.c to include the right tkInt.h file #endif Since my version of tk was 8.4.9-9, the program would jump to the "Sorry, you.." and this explains the error since the code has problems with newer versions! The tkInt.h was copied from /usr/include/tkInt.h to current togl-directory and when you then do a "make" again, compilation will take about 15 minutes and you're done. Compiler was gcc (GCC) 4.0.1, no need for -fpermissive or anything else mentioned in this thread. Since I also used: export TCL_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/tcl8.4 export TK_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/tk8.4 export TIX_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/tix8.1 Then our systems must be much alike. Good luck, I think you should start completely from scratch again and don't edit anything else but togl.cpp! I hope this was good news for you... You're actually very close to completing the installation. I think your problem is that you changed something in the other source files... Let me know if this helps. |
Thanks for tips, Martin.

Thanks for tips, Martin.
I'm happy for you fixing the problem on your computer. The only difference I undertand between the two system is that I run suse 9,2 and gcc 3.3.4 instead of suse 9,3 and gcc 4.0.1. Strangly enough I have done quite the same as you, but keep getting the same errormessage as before. I have tried to follow the tip about -fpermissive as well by adding this after CPLUSPLUSFLAGS = in Makefile (not all Makefiles). The errors are still: lars@linux:~/ngs44> make gcc -c -I./libsrc/include -I/opt/OpenCASCADE5.2/ros/inc -I./ngsolve/include -Ilibsrc/interface -DOPENGL -O2 -I/usr/include/GL3.5 -DLINUX -DOPENGL -ftemplate-depth-99 -finline-limit=20000 -funroll-loops -DNGSOLVE ngtcltk/demoview.cpp -o ngtcltk/demoview.o ./libsrc/include/../general/array.hpp: In constructor 'netgen::ARRAY<t,>::ARRAY(int) [with T = netgen::InterpolationPoint<netgen::vec<3> > [3], int BASE = 0]': ngtcltk/demoview.hpp:116: instantiated from 'netgen::InterpolationSpline<s>::InterpolationSpli ne(S) [with S = netgen::Vec<3>]' ngtcltk/demoview.cpp:315: instantiated from here ./libsrc/include/../general/array.hpp:155: error: invalid use of undefined type 'class netgen::InterpolationPoint<netgen::vec<3> >' ngtcltk/demoview.hpp:74: error: declaration of 'class netgen::InterpolationPoint<netgen::vec<3> >' make: *** [ngtcltk/demoview.o] Error 1 lars@linux:~/ngs44>116 Something with 'class netgen' ?

By the way, Martin. Where did
By the way, Martin. Where did you install netgen, in /home/username/ngs44 or /usr/local... and how does the structure look like?
A general question; I understand that when building from sources, it is usually three commands that has to be used: ./configure make make install Have I understood it right as for programs like netgen, where there already exists Makefile, the ./configure command is skipped? |
Hi,
I installed it in /home
Hi,
I installed it in /home/martin/ngs44 since I'm the only linux user on both machines, but I guess on a multiuser system it would be better to place it in /usr/local? Not so important, though (still compiled as root). Actually as I remember it I think I only did "make" and used yast to install the necessary development stuff. I think you need to open yast and install some more devel libraries and don't worry about classes + flags etc. Do you have something named ?-x11-?-devel installed (can't remember the exact name), and also development libraries for tcl/tk + tix? NOTICE: Look for the files in /usr/include if in doubt. Then you'll know whether you need more devel libraries or not. I didn't install mesa this time and only used yast for installing what was missing (didn't grab the files from the netgen download page). I still think you shouldn't change anything but the togl.cpp so I would start all over if I were you. ----- BTW: Anyone got any hints on how to get STEP/IGES import functionality working with netgen? I tried to install OpenCASCADE with java -jar setup.jar (don't remember the exact filename, but the installer just exited). Binary files should be in /opt/? but I can't even start the program...... I then did a "make" in the netgen installation directory again and this time compilation took more than 1 hour, but still I can't import IGES/STEP files on suse 9.3. Anyone, perhaps Mattijs got any hints? |
Fantastic, I finally made it!
Fantastic, I finally made it! The only difference now (as far as I have registered) was that I compiled as root. Thanks for help so far.
...anyway when trying to build the IGES/STEP OpenCascade module, I get the errormessage: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-suse-linux/3.3.4/../../../../i586-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lTKIGES collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [ng] Error 1 linux:/home/Lars/ngs44 # ...but then again its stated on the Netgen website that: "At present, only the NETGEN version downloaded via CVS access supports the installation of the OpenCascade kernel." (Anyhow it does work in the windows version) L |
Any one succeeded in compiling
Any one succeeded in compiling negen on linux with OpenCascade kernel?
I can compile it without the kernel but have difficulties with it. Any suggestion will be appreciated. Colinss |
