I tried with no success to install OpenFOAM 3.0.x on Fedora 23 I thought at least I had managed to install OpenFOAM 3.0.x without Paraview but as you could see in the log file there are errors that I can not overcome.
I installed the CGAL library v4.7 using the dnf command (ex-yum) but It seems not to be working.

Any help will be welcome

Thanks in advance

I managed to perform a successful build of OpenFOAM-3.0.1 on Fedora 23 (x86_64) following the steps outlined in this link: https://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Installation/Linux

It was however necessary to add an extra step at step [7] which I made a post about here: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...ding-cgal.html

Hopefully this helps,

Steven

Quick notes:
@Steven: Many thanks for the feedback!

@dfeid: Full installation instructions are now available here: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/In...M-3.0.x/Fedora

And sorry to both for not having detailed installation instructions sooner for Fedora + OpenFOAM 3.0, but I was also waiting for someone to take the step forward and state that "Fedora is not forgotten"

Hello Bruno,

thank you for the post about the installation of OpenFOAM on Fedora (http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/In...M-3.0.x/Fedora). I was partially succesfull.

I am running Fedora 23 with x86_64 architecture. In step 7 of the previously mentioned tutorial, command

source $HOME/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-3.0.x/etc/bashrc WM_LABEL_SIZE=64 FOAMY_HEX_MESH=yes

gives

bash: mpicc: command not found...

I did not find solution for this. Coul you please help?

I am pretty new to OpenFOAM so I am not sure if the installation went ok. My installation log is enclosed in log.make.tz

Also, during run of icoFoam for the first cavity example (http://cfd.direct/openfoam/user-guid...ty/#x5-40002.1), some results were generated, but I cannot view them since I cannot run paraFoam.

When I try to run paraFoam I get

paraFoam

FATAL ERROR: ParaView reader module libraries do not exist

Please build the reader module before continuing:
cd $FOAM_UTILITIES/postProcessing/graphics/PV4Readers
./Allwclean
./Allwmake

I do not know if the problems are connected, but any help would be a step forward.

Thanks a lot.

Quick answer: It seems that you missed the following command:

module mpi/load openmpi-x86_64 || export PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib64/openmpi/bin

which should load the environment for Open-MPI. Start a new terminal, run this line and then run the source command. If it still has problems, check steps #1 and #2 for any error messages.

The other errors you got are likely related to the same problem.
