My bad (tail draggging low....)

I was attempting to run the icoFoam example from a write-protected directory.

Everything seems to run perfectly - thanks Oliver!

great release, the package seems to work fine with ubuntu 9.04 64-bit as well, thought the paraview package won't work just yet due to the dependency on the package libavcondec51.

paraview aside, this is immensely appreciated.

Keep up the good work

I'm using ubuntu 9.04 and installed the OpenFOAM.deb from your site using apt-get install (name).deb
It gave some errors because some dependencies weren't met so I installed those and then openfoam installed just fine. As the previous message said, paraview will not install this way but I was able to follow some links and got it installed a different way. Anyway, to the point.
I have added the line;
alias startOF15="source /usr/lib/Ojon@jon:~$ startOF15
penFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/etc/bashrc"
to the end of my ~/.bashrc file and rebooted the system.
then opened a terminal and ran the startOF15 from there, this is the output
jon@jon:~$ startOF15jon@jon:~$ startOF15
bash: /usr/lib/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/etc/bashrc: No such file or directory
bash: /usr/lib/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/etc/bashrc: No such file or directory

Ideas on what I can do to get openfoam working would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance for anyones input to this matter.

Hi,
I am not very familiar with Linux and I am trying to install OF1.5 or OF1.5-dev and paraView. I am using ubuntu 8.10 and I used the packages from https://launchpad.net/~oli-borm/+archive/ppa.
The installation of OF was ok. I have also added
alias startOF15="source /usr/lib/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/etc/bashrc"
to my ~/.bashrc.
When I typed startOF15, I got the message:
maja@maja-laptop:/$ startOF15
bash: startOF15: command not found
I saw others had the same problem but I did not find the answer. I know it must be a stupid reason but I will be very glad if someone helps me.
Thanks a lot.
Maja

Hi Maja!

Perhaps you mistyped alias for startOF15....
The best way to check it is to type "alias" (without quotes) in your bash shell.
It will produce list of your aliases. So check, is startOF15 in that list.
Good luck!

Thanks a lot! I have no idea what was wrong. Anyway it works now!
Thanks again!

Hello,

I've updated the OpenFOAM-1.5-dev and paraview-3.6.2 debian packages for Ubuntu 10.04. You can get the packages from the CAE-Team PPA:

https://launchpad.net/~cae-team/+archive/ppa/+packages

Just follow the installation instructions from the wiki:
