The foam installation contains 2 critical error(s).

Review the output for warning messages and consult
the installation guide for trouble shooting.

done.

Hello Marco,

one of the errors is that you should use the gcc which comes with OpenFOAM. Do the following:

- Open the ~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5-dev/etc/settings.sh (or settings.csh)
- In the section Compiler settings select the following compiler Installation and comment the other options out. It should look like this:

# compilerInstall = OpenFOAM | System
compilerInstall = OpenFOAM
# compilerInstall = System

This should fix at least the error with the gcc and will allow you to compile.

Good luck, Julius

Hello Julius,

thank you for your help. I have tried it without success.

Regards,

Marco.

OpenFOAM-1.5-dev compiling problem
 

Hi,:eek::cool::confused:

I have downloaded the 1.5-dev version from http://powerlab.fsb.hr/ped/kturbo/OpenFOAM/release/ , but I have difficulty compiling it.
Here is the exact process that I have done:

cd /home/ad/OpenFOAM

1-I did : tar -xzf OpenFOAM-1.5-dev.General_2009-04-11.tgz
2-I did : tar -xzf ThirdParty.General_2008-12-11.tgz
3-cd etc/
4-source bashrc
5-cd ~
6-vi .bashrc
7-I added . /home/ad/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5-dev/etc/bashrc to the end of .bashrc in home directory, then I did source .bashrc (no error sofar)
9-when I start compileing it by typing ./Allwamke after almost one hour of compiling it returns me the following error (the src files are compiled with no errors, but neither of applications are compiled, they all come with Error 1 or Error 2):
