Hi FOAMers!

I am trying to install openfoam 6 on ubuntu 18.04. I followed instructions here. At the end of the installation under "Getting Started" there is no OpenFOAM directory /home. There is only the josh directory (my name).

Even if I go there, there is not an OpenFOAM directory. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hey!

Try using a "mkdir -p $FOAM_RUN" at the end of the installation. This creates your run folder.
