Greetings Harshawardhan Kulkarni and welcome to the forum!

Unfortunately openSUSE 11.4 is no longer supported by the openSUSE development team, which is why the link "http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.4/repo/non-oss/" no longer works as intended.

I strongly suggest that you either upgrade your openSUSE installation to the latest 13.1 version or simply choose a Linux Distribution that supports long term support, such as Ubuntu LTS, CentOS or Scientific Linux.


If you cannot upgrade your Linux installation, then you will have to build everything or almost everything from source code. If this is the case, then please indicate if you still have the original installation disk and which version/model of disk it is, namely if it's the DVD installation disk or the Live CD.

Best regards,
Bruno

Hello friends,

I have installed OpenFOAM 2.2.0 on OpenSUSE 11.4. The procees of instalation

gets completed. I also run the cavity case in the installed software. but as soon as I

close the software and the terminal and then I reopen it, It is not taking any command

in OpenFOAM. At that time it is also showing the error like "OpenFOAM environment

not configured" when you run ./foamInstallationTest.


Regards

Quick answer:

1. It seems that you did not add this line (or similar) to the "~/.bashrc" file:
   

   . $HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-2.2.0/etc/bashrc
