Hello All,
I am new to CFD. When I am trying to install OpenFOAM-4.1 with metis support on Linux x86_64 architecture, it is giving me following error

return *reinterpret_cast<mapDistributeBase*>(NULL);
                     ^

Hello All,
I tried few things, when I change WM_LABEL_SIZE=32. The application gets compiled without the scotchDecomp error. But I want to install for WM_LABEL_SIZE=64.

Please help.

Thank You

Quick questions:

1. Have you managed to solve this problem?
2. If not, then which Linux Distribution are you using?
3. Are you trying to build Scotch or Metis? I ask this because in some places you mention Metis and others the output refers to Scotch.
