Hi all-

As I've tried to compile specific applications, a common error continues to emerge:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find

The error says it cannot find -lfiniteVolume or -lcfdTools or -lwhatever. I've seen this problem on other posts, but haven't found a remedy to the problem. Does anyone know the root cause of the problem? I'm sure it's a simple fix in the options file of the make folder of the application, but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong and what I ought to change. And, it seems to be a common problem as I compile many applications. Is there a way to solve the problem for all of the applications at once?

Thanks in advance for your help.
I'm running on Ubuntu, 32bit.

Hmmm - ran into this problem yesterday on a students computer...

Havent fixed it yet, but

I know on 64 bit ubuntu binutils libiberty requires binutils-dev

Rick-

Thank you! I found that it was a library build problem and remedied it with binutils as you alluded to above. I ran wmake libso OpenFOAM in the src directory and it worked great. However, when I go back up to the main directory and do ./Allwmake, I get the new following error:

I've never heard of flex++, but it seems like I don't have some utility installed that contains flex++.

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks.

flex++ is usually the same executable as flex (on my machine it is a softlink to flex). It produces a parser using C++ instead of C.

[bastil]

I also get lots of these:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find

messages during compiling OF 1.5.x. The script contiunues with some of them but finally stops with another of these errors.
I have binutils installed on my Gentoo x86_64 System. The wiki tells to rerun ./Allwmake in the source directory once more. If I do this without running "wcleanAll" before I get lots of errors. If I run "wcleanAll" I am struggeling with exactly the same errors. Any ideas?

[alexandrepereira]

Hi ppl

I am running into the same kindo of probls, trying to compile OF-1.5.x... my ThirdParty folder is the default of OF-1.5, I have binutils and flex installed... I am running allwmake in a Ubuntu 7.10... the last lib to be built was libKineticTheoryModel.so... before build errors started appearing...


What is wrong with OF-1.5.x...?

I successfully compiled OF-1.5-dev...

Best regards

Alex

[NickG]

Does anyone know how to get round this problem? I have it on 64bit Ubuntu when trying to install the OpenFOAM-1.5-dev.General_2009-12-11.tgz
from http://powerlab.fsb.hr/ped/kturbo/OpenFOAM/release/ I've successfully installed all the third party apps have flex, flex++, binutils, etc, etc but still no luck. I know it's to do with the ld linker but don't know how to fix it

[gwierink]

Hi Nick,

I just successfully installed OF-1.5-dev on 64 bit Ubuntu 9.10 and had some similar problem at first. It turned out I forgot to install binutils-dev. Are you sure you have that package as well?

[NickG]

Thanks Gijsbert

Compiled with no errors! There's a first time for everything...

[blaise]

Hi Foamers,

I see some people had this kind of trouble before, but none of the solutions seems to suit my case.
I am trying to compile the same package as NickG and run into the same linker errors saying

...blah
-lfiniteVolume -lOpenFOAM -liberty -ldl -lm -o /home/ofuser/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5-dev/applications/bin/linux64GccDPOpt/sonicLiquidFoam
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lfiniteVolume
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I am running a CentOS cluster with 2.6.18-128.4.1.el5 kernel and had no problems with later versions of OF (like 1.6.x or 1.7.1).
I have binutils and binutils-devel-2.17.50.0.6-14.el5.x86_64 installed, I use gcc-4.4 (freshly compiled). I fixed the strange <<<<<... entries in the etc/bashrc and put a softlink in the ThirdParty directory so that openmpi-1.3.3 redirects to the actually existing openmpi-1.2.6. $PATH looks like this:

/bin:/home/ofuser/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-1.5-dev/openmpi-1.3.3/platforms/linux64GccDPOpt/bin:/home/ofuser/OpenFOAM/ofuser-1.5-dev/applications/bin/linux64GccDPOpt:/home/ofuser/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5-dev/applications/bin/linux64GccDPOpt:/home/ofuser/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5-dev/wmake:/home/ofuser/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5-dev/bin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/opt/ofed/bin:/opt/ofed/sbin:/home/ofuser/bin

When I follow the hint to run Allwmake in the source directory again, I get this:

After this, some outputs states that things are all well again, like:

and so on!

What am I missing? I am completely lost with this trouble!

Thanks a lot!

[wyldckat]

Greetings Pascal,

I've got a feeling that your gcc 4.4 is not visible to your OpenFOAM 1.5-dev I don't see any path to it the PATH variable!
Where exactly is your gcc 4.4?
What does "gcc --version" output?

Best regards,
Bruno

[blaise]

Hi Bruno,

yeah, would have been a nice bummer! ;-)

The gcc -dumpversion gives 4.4.5, and it is under /usr/local/bin, which is confirmed by "which" command.

When I do all the commands in Allwmake by hand, things start to fail when processing the stuff in the src directory. The following errors come up immediately:

....... (snippet) .........

Is there something wrong with some 64-bit libraries on my system?

A bit later the following files cannot be created:
libOSspecific.o
libfiniteVolume.so
libdynamicMesh.so
libfvMotionSolver.so
libfaceDecompositionMotionSolver.so
libsampling.so
libdynamicFvMesh.so
libengine.so
libODE.so
librandomProcesses.so
libbasicThermophysicalModels.so
liblaminarFlameSpeedModels.so
libchemistryModel.so
libradiation.so

and some more, which seems to be caused by the absence of "-lfiniteVolume" or "-ldynamicMesh" or "-lmeshTools" (at least the linker cannot find them). Nevertheless, there are quite a lot of shared object files in the respective directory
/home/ofuser/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5-dev/lib/linux64GccDPOpt/

So, something in the build of those libraries goes wrong. But what??????????????

Thanks a lot for the input!

Best regards,

Pascal.

[wyldckat]

Hi Pascal,

There are only a few possibilities left, as far as I can tell:

• some specific header in gcc's lookup paths is damaged, or is picking up the old header; but this is odd if you already managed to build OpenFOAM 1.6.x and 1.7.x with this very same gcc version and system.
• the SVN version of 1.5-dev that you pulled could be seriously damaged! SVN might be changing some characters for compatibility or something like that. Try retrieving a tarball straight from openfoam-extend's websvn.
  I say this because you mention some weird "<<<" in bashrc and the code you pasted has some strange black background diamond-like questions marks.

Additionally, you can use the ThirdParty 1.6 folder from OpenFOAM 1.6 with OpenFOAM 1.5-dev without any problems This way you can save up a bit of space and have an updated OpenMPI to 1.3.3.
I don't say 1.7's ThirdParty, because with 1.7 things are a bit different and would require some additional tweaking.

Best regards,
Bruno

[tcarrigan]

Digging around I found the solution to this problem.

If using Ubuntu, install these packages: gcc, binutils-dev, flex, build-essential, python-dev, libqt4-dev, libreadline5-dev, zlib1g-dev, cmake

If using CentOS (RHEL), install the following: gcc, gcc-c++, bison, ncurses-devel, binutils-devel, tix.x86_64, glibc-devel, flex, flex-devel, zlib-devel, libXt-devel

Everything seems to work afterward.

Hi Bruno and Others,

I am getting a similar ld compileing error. Few weeks back our cluster creashed and they installed new operating system. I was able to run some cases in OF1.6. Yesterday I tried to compile some of the solvers and I ran into this ld exit problem that all are talking about.
Do you know what could be done to rectify this error.

my gcc version is 4.4.3

You have two choices:

1. Either install the binutils development package (binutils-dev in Ubuntu/Debian).
2. Or remove "-liberty" from the file "OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.7.1/wmake/rules/linux64Gcc/general".

Hi Bruno,

Thanks. I tired option#2 that you suggested, but it some I am getting a kind of error that is trying to recosgnize some unkown characters when I compile the solver and both the source code (in OpenFOAM-1.6 version).

Strangely the error remains even if I keep the "-liberty" option in the ~wmake/rules/linxGcc/general.

Following is the error:

These " †" kind of cahrates appear for during whol of compilation (both the source code and the solvers". Can you suggest what this error could be and how I can rectify it?

Thanks,
Nir

Hi Bruno,

So I have a new error in compiling solvers, which I was able to do before. I am not sure what happened? Can you please point me to what could be the source of this error. I am guessing this is not related to the -liberty option with general file (of the wmake/rules/linux64Gcc) directory as irrespective of that I see there is a compilation error:

Error:

The problem here is that zlib is missing. If you look in the folder gcc-4.3.3 in ThirdParty-1.6, you will find the folder zlib. The files "Make/files" and "Make/options" for zlib can be found in the ThirdParty for OpenFOAM 1.5. For example, see here; at the end of that link, you can find a "Download GNU tarball" which allows you to download the whole zlib package.

As for the other problem with gasificationFoam, try:

wclean
wmake

A final note: please use the "#" button when posting code here on the forum; it's available in "advanced mode" and it will make it easier to read the code you post!

Best regards,
Bruno

Bruno,

Thanks. I think the -liberty option works great.
