Hi,

I want to run blockMesh on an server. I tried the same mesh with the same OpenFoam version (4.1) an the same distribtion (Ubuntu 16.04 LTS) on my local computer an it worked. Now on the server it does not.
I tried to check nearly every file. I cannot find any difference.
I testet some ideas from this forum but found no working solution and now I hope for your help.
Thats what my blockMesh log file says:

Hi David,

It's a little bit late but the error appears since make is not installed in your system or the path has a problem. Installing make may solve this trouble.

In Ubuntu, you may use:

sudo apt-get remove make
sudo apt-get install make

or:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall make

Hope it also helps someone get the same trouble.

Didn't expect that to solve my problem! I had this problem compiling swak4Foam.

Thank Ngo.

I tried reinstalling make as suggested by @chienfm and my OpenFoam was deleted. I do not know why that happenend but now I have to reinstall everything as it was including extra solvers and platforms I had installed. I am not sure if it will solve the problem once it is reinstalled, but I doubt it. Careful when using these instructions for yourselves.
