Hello!
Has anybody managed to get OpenFOAM to work on Ubuntu Natty Narwhale 11.04 64 bit?
I tried to manually infuse the maverick packages, and e.g. snappyhexmesh does not start as some libraries are not binary compatible.

Also compilation failed, once because of Paraview, seemingly also because some original OpenFOAM code did not compile.

If anybody succeeded, could he please give a walkthrough?

very nice greetings,
Bernhard

it is compiling right now.
what I had to do to reach this state, IIRC:
Code:
cd ~
mkdir OpenFOAM
cd OpenFOAM
git clone http://github.com/OpenCFD/OpenFOAM-1.7.x.git
cd OpenFoam-1.7.x
./Allwmake

I had this a problem installing it on the 32 bit version of Natty. May be unrelated, but you can look at this link:
http://http://www.idurun.com/?p=544
Scroll down and look under Issues. This helped me fix the problem.

I wrote to OpenFOAM technical support and they told me that had not yet released deb-pack of OpenFOAM for Ubuntu 11.04 which is very new!!but I will do so with the next release of OpenFOAM...............

They say: " In the meantime you can
either run OpenFOAM on Ubuntu 10.10 or build the source-pack on Ubuntu 11.04."

I know C, C++ languages but I don't know how to adapt a software to a new OS version...... anybody could help me?

Thank you bye Riccardo from Italy

I just uploaded my 1.7.x compiled binaries to my German server:
http://kariert.org/openfoam_unoffici...u_11.04.tar.gz


it should be unpacked, so that you have get a directory structure like this:

~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.7.x/

hope this works for some people, I have no clue about dependencies.

I am currently running OpenFOAM 1.7.1 on Natty 32 bit. In my experience, the different OS did not matter too much, and the only thing I needed to do was to edit the 'wmake/rules/linux***/general' file (Insert your own compiler in place of linux****, for example linux64Gcc for 64 bit, linuxGcc for 32 bit and so on) and add the following:
Code:
PROJECT_LIBS = -l$(WM_PROJECT) -liberty -ldl $(FOAM_MPI_LIBBIN)/libPstream.so
Then make sure you have the dependencies installed, issue ./Allwmake at the foam directory, sit back and enjoy.
Or maybe you can go and catch up on your favorite movie while it builds OpenFOAM.
Good luck.

PS.

Our tests indicate that the OpenFOAM packs for maverick work on Ubuntu 11.04 (natty). See the additional instructions:
http://www.openfoam.com/download/ubuntu.php

If any problems are encountered, please report a bug at:

Hi,

I am trying to install a dev version of OpenFOAM 1.7.x source pack with Natty 11.04 64-bit on a Sony VAIO Z-series laptop. OpenFOAM compiles and runs fine but paraview begins to compile then has the following error abut 1/2 way through compilation:

I have tried all of the above suggestions in this thread to no avail.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

hello,

On Natty 11.04, you will need to install libxt-dev to get rid of the "Intrinsic.h" error
