Hi,

I'm having issues installing solids4foam following the instructions on https://www.solids4foam.com/installa...romSource.html

I'm very new to openFOAM and WSL so it's likely I'm missing something simple


I have followed these steps:
- Starting with fresh Ubuntu Install (WSL)
- Install openFOAM - v2012 following instructions here: https://develop.openfoam.com/Develop...ompiled/debian
- Add openFOAM source to ~/bashrc with the following

 source /usr/lib/openfoam/openfoam2012/etc/bashrc

- Install petsc with:

sudo apt install petsc-dev

- Set the PETSC_DIR with:

export PETSC_DIR = /usr/lib/petscdir

(also added to ~/bashrc)

- install gfortran with

sudo apt-get install gfortran

- install gnuplot with:

sudo apt-get install gnuplot

- download solids4foam git repository V2.0 with:

git clone --branch v2.0 https://github.com/solids4foam/solids4foam.git

- Build with

cd solids4foam
./Allwmake -j 2>&1 | tee log.Allwmake

I have attached the log file for reference also.

Any help is very much appreciated.

You have a problem with petsc during compilation. Skip the installation of petsc ( do not set PETSC_DIR variable) and try again.

Thank Ivan, that appears to have done the trick.
