Hi everyone, i’m an engineering student and i’m trying to install CodeSaturne 4.0.6 for a project.
I followed a guide for the installation of the various software like hdf5, qt4, med, metis, scotch, etc…
I tried with the classic ./configure - make - make install but during the “make” phase there was an error. I decided to use the install_saturne,py instead (i’m attaching the setup file and the installation log file) but i’ve got the same error.
I’m working on Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS and “i think” i’ve installed:
-CGNS 3.3.0
-hdf5 1.8.14 (have 1.10patch)
-OpenBlas
-libxml2
-sip
-med 3.0.8 (have 3.1.0 too)
-pyqt
-QT 4.8.6
-Scotch 6.0.4
-metis 5.1.0
-parmetis 4.0.3
I hope u can help me i’m desperate
and i’ve another question: I know CodeSaturne CAN use program like scotch or similar and in the setup file there’re those columns with *name *use *install *path. If i don’t set the “use” slot with “yes”, will CodeSaturne automatically use the program i’ve installed? or must i build it later with those parts? SSetup.log (4.07 KB) install_saturne.log (1.24 MB)
Are you using a 32 or 64-bit variant of Ubuntu ? The link problem seems to come from CGNS, so you may try installing it with the automatic installer (use=yes, install = yes in setup).
As for your last question, to use a package if it is already installed, you need “use=auto”, and posibly to define the path (if it is not in a standard directory).
Finally! Thank you very much! I installed cgns with use=yes install=yes as u said and it worked! To answer your question i’m using 64bit and i did not set the other applications with “use” command in setup. I will find some kind of error while using code saturne? and i also got this:
"Before using Code_Saturne, please update your environment with:
cspath=/home/mik/Code_Saturne/4.0.6/code_saturne-4.0.6/arch/Linux_x86_64/bin
alias code_saturne=“$cspath/bin”
The documentation should then be available through the commands:
code_saturne info -g refcard
code_saturne info -g user
Do not forget the post-installation steps recommended in the
installation documentation, available using:
code_saturne info -g install
Thank you for choosing Code_Saturne!
"
Can u help me? i’m not a computer expert and i don’t get the instruction on the pdf that shows me the post installation process.
the post-installation is not important if you are running on a workstation, unless you need to use couplig with the Syrthes code.
The recommendation for the environment allows you to use a simple “code_saturne” command (in a terminal) instead of requiring to type the whole path. But the code should work even if you do not do it.
