OpenFoam Windows

bineet_aero · September 25, 2020, 06:19

Hello,

I was able to install OpenFoam-windows 10 and run few tutorials successfully (using "Windows subsystem for Linux"). However, after i restarted my PC and i tried doing some tutorials the error message came that "openfoam is not installed" and can be installed using "sudo apt install openfoam". But after executing this command, the installation could not go through and the error message came "unable to locate package OpenFoam".

Anyone has any idea about how to resolve it. Thanks in advance for your help. Regards

Hi Bineet,

how does your .bashrc look like?
Is the command ". /opt/openfoam8/etc/bashrc" in it?
