wmUNSET works for 2.4.0 but not for 5.0

deepbandivadekar · October 27, 2017, 08:28

Hello!

Minor issue:
the wmUNSET command works while I'm running the 2.4.0 version but if I change to OF 5.0, it says

Code:

wmUNSET: command not found

So this means when I'm working in 5.0 and I want to change to 2.4.0 using the appropriate alias, I must close this terminal window and open a new one to continue.

Anyone knows what could be going wrong ?

You can't have multiple versions of OpenFOAM initialized in the same terminal. Using an alias to source an openfoam environment while another one has already been used does not mean that the original one has been cleared in the current shell environment.

Close your terminal and reopen it to use another version of OpenFOAM.

So wmUNSET exists simply to unload the current OF environment? Oh okay.
But still, why won't it work for OF5.0 then ? Why the error

Hi,

It was renamed.

Here's OpenFOAM-2.4.x/etc/config/aliases.sh

Code:

# clear env
alias wmUNSET='. $WM_PROJECT_DIR/etc/config/unset.sh'

Here's OpenFOAM-5.x/etc/config.sh/aliases

Code:

# Clear env
alias wmUnset='. $WM_PROJECT_DIR/etc/config.sh/unset'

Thanks! That's exactly what I wanted to know.
