Hi, I was trying to run a case with buoyantBoussinesqSimpleFoam and it kept giving me the following error:


Code:
Reading thermophysical properties

Using dynamicCode for patch slipWall on field T at line 44 in "/home/username/Downloads/case_name/0/T.boundaryField.slipWall"

I've been checking the forum to see if anyone had a similar issue. Here's the list of things I've tried so far:
  1. Installing make (sudo apt-get install make)
  2. Installing gcc (sudo apt-get install gcc)
  3. Adding the following lines to the bashrc file: . /usr/lib/openfoam/openfoam2112/etc/bashrc and source /usr/lib/openfoam/openfoam2112/etc/bashrc
  4. sudo apt install build-essential flex bison
  5. Installing the complete version of openfoam v2112 from the repo
And nothing has worked so far. Does anyone know what may be causing this issue? I can run other solvers but for some reason it won't let me run buoyantBoussinesqSimpleFoam.


Thanks in advance!


Oh and btw here's the bit of the 0/T file where it crashes:
Code:
slipWall
    {
        type            codedFixedValue;
        value          uniform 0;

        code
        #{
            scalarField& field = *this; 
            scalar Twall  = 1;
            scalar lambda = 0.01;
            scalar sigma  = 1;
            scalar Pr     = 0.71;
            scalar gamma  = 1.4;
            scalar rlx    = 0.95;

            // DT/dn
            scalarField gradient = this->snGrad();

            field = rlx*(*this) + (1-rlx)*(Twall - lambda/Pr*(2-sigma)/sigma*2*gamma/(gamma+1)*gradient);
        #};         

        codeOptions
        #{

I've also get a similar problem, when I try to use inline calculation in blockMeshDict.

Hi,


I have found several posts on this forum about the error:


'FOAM FATAL ERROR: exec(wmake, ...) failed'


They are always unsolved (apart for the more or less trivial ones, where the user just forgot to install 'make'. The cases where the user did install all prerequisites remain unsolved.)


Did anyone ever solve it?


Thanks!!!

The solution, in my case, was to install the openfoamXXXX-dev package from the repo
