Hello all,

I am trying to compile a new boundary condition on a supercomputer that I have access to it. Although it was compiled before on my personal laptop, it gives me an error here. Please see the error as below:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I could not figure it out yet. I would appreciate the help in advance. Please see the file/option as follow:

The files is as below:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
turbulentKineticEnergyInletFvPatchScalarField.C
LIB = $(FOAM_USER_LIBBIN)/libturbulentKineticEnergyInlet
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The option is as below:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXE_INC = \
-I$(LIB_SRC)/finiteVolume/lnInclude \
-I$(LIB_SRC)/meshTools/lnInclude

LIB_LIBS = \
-lfiniteVolume \
-lmeshTools

Do you have writing rights to the directories you want to write your .so file

Hi Michael,

Actually I could compile the BC by changing the following in the file:

"FOAM_USER_LIBBIN" to "FOAM_LIBBIN"

In addition, when I run "echo $FOAM_USER_APPBIN" I got a blank line of output. I think it is not set here. I think the environment variable "FOAM_USER_APPBIN" is not recognized at all.

Do you know any solution for it?

Thank you in advance.

Best,
Mehrshad

I solved the issue.

First I source the bashrc file. Then, the "echo $FOAM_USER_APPBIN" worked. It gives me the corresponding address:

/storage/home/mxa261/OpenFOAM/mxa261-v2006/platforms/linux64GccDPInt32-spack/bin

However, I had to create the directories manually. I do not know why it was not already there! After that, the compilation worked by using wmake command.

Best,
Mehrshad

In most cases the spack installation will use modules to setup the environment, which means that it may fail to set up somethings. Not entirely sure.
