Hi Ranas

It means that something went wrong while compiling the src-directory of OpenFOAM. At least that it where the library libautoMesh gets compiled.

Hi Niels

Thank you for your reply! I found that there is something wrong about the version 1.5(may be bugs in this version 1.5 ), cause i do not meet any problem compiling version 1.5.x .
