Greetings p0kerus,

Mind sharing how you installed Salome_meca 2014.1?
Otherwise the help given might not match the installation you're using.

Greetings wyldckat,
i used this link to download script file Salome-Meca 2014.1
which is a huge file
after decompressing i got prerequisite folder in salome install directory mine was opt/salome/v7_3_0/Prerequisite ,
It has all qt , cmake,scotch and boost folder . It has all the necessary file according to me , but i couldn't find a way to source the directory patch during installation , i searched etc directory of openFOAM but i couldn't find the variable that i should use to source it i know its too complicated but i would like to try
Thanking You
Regards

Hi p0kerus,

I advise you to let OpenFOAM build its own Scotch 6.0.0, because SALOME only has Scotch 5.11.1.

Anyway, here's the overview on what you need to modify:

1. Edit these files:
   

   OpenFOAM-2.3.0/etc/config/CGAL.sh
   OpenFOAM-2.3.0/etc/config/paraview.sh
   ThirdParty-2.3.0/makeCGAL

   And adjust the folder paths and version numbers accordingly.
   Notes:
   • CGAL depends on Boost, so that's the only thing that needs modifying. Example regarding Boost, change this line:
     

     export BOOST_ARCH_PATH=$WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR/platforms/$WM_ARCH$WM_COMPILER/$boost_version

     To this:
     

     export BOOST_ARCH_PATH=/opt/salome/SALOME-MECA-2014.1-LGPL/prerequisites/Boost_1520

   • CMake version and path is defined in "paraview.sh"
2. After you've properly modified those files, start a new terminal window and initialize the OpenFOAM shell environment. If you don't know what I mean, then read this wiki page: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/In...with_the_Shell
3. Build OpenFOAM according to the compilation instructions.
4. When building ParaView 4.1.0, use this command:
   

   ./makeParaView4 -qmake /opt/salome/SALOME-MECA-2014.1-LGPL/prerequisites/Qt_484/bin/qmake PARAVIEW_INSTALL_THIRD_PARTY_LIBRARIES:BOOL=ON

And that's all!

Best regards,
Bruno
