Hello,
I'm new to this community and I'm a new OpenSuse user. I tried to install OpenFOAM on OpenSuse 11 and it just worked. The foamInstallationTest returned me 0 error.

But, when I'm trying to build paraview, I got this message:

"-- Application: default ParaView Client enabled
Qt ASSISTANT library not found.

I don't really understand what the problem is so it would be really great if someone could help me! ;-)


I had the same kind problem with Ubuntu Hardly Heron...

Thank you for your help.

Check that you have the qt devel packages installed. I have the following rpms installed:

libqt4-devel-doc
libqt4-x11
libqt4-sql
libqt4-devel
libqt4-devel-doc-data
libqt4
libqt4-qt3support
libqt4-dbus

[gizmo]

I checked then I typed the command: rpm -qa libqt* in the terminal to be sure that I have the good ones (I found this command in another subject in this forum) and I still have exactly the same message :-(

Thank you for your help ;-)

Any other suggestion?

[danielle]

I have the same problem
what is the solution ?????
thanks for help

[gizmo]

I solved the problem by downloading and re-installing libqt4 packages with yast and it worked!

Tell me if your problem is solved ;-)

[danielle]

Thanks Benjamin,
The problem still the same :-(
and I need see my results.

[gizmo]

I have the following packages installed on my OpenSuse (maybe there are not all needed but this can help you):

gcc
gcc-4.2
gcc-4.2-base
libqt-4-core
libqt-4-debug
libqt-4-dev
libqt-4-gui
libqt-4-qt3support
libqt-4-sql
libqthreads-12
libmpfr-dev

If Yast suggests you other packages while installing these, accept them.

Good luck ;-)

[asddsa001]

Did you installed the cmake package?

[hellorishi]

I've installed gcc-4.3.1 in addition to the gcc on my current system (avoid conflicts).
Now I am trying to build ParaView as mentioned in guide, however I am stuck at this issue and have no clue... please help.

Hi Rishi!

Have a look at Mark's post above. Fastest way to check whether you have the packages described there would be

rpm -qa | grep qt4

My guess would be that the qt4-x11-packages are not installed on your machine.

HI Bernhard,

Well my situation is pretty strange. I dont have direct internet access on this OF machine, so I cant install using rpm/YaST. To add to that, I cant generally install using rpm, since it tends to disturb settings/dependencies for other installed programs.

Hence I can only install the autoconf way:
./configure
make
su
make install

I have already installed qt4.3.2-x11 packages. I have a different error message today, after playing around with qt-x11.

Hi Rishi,

Did you have a look at Alberto Passalacqua's site yet? http://albertopassalacqua.com/?p=112
There he describes to get OpenFOAM-1.5 working in OpenSUSE-11.0.

Regards, Gijsbert

[hellorishi]

Hello Gijsbert,

Thanks for the reply.

I looked at the post, but I cannot download from git, due to lack of internet access for Linux machines at my place and I cant install GIT software on XP, since its a univ library machine (from where I am writing this post). Only an http or ftp download is an option for me.

Now OF-1.5 is working. I installed ParaView-3.4. Still missing paraFoam: same old QT errors...

[gwierink]

Ok, that complicates the issue a bit . I have had a similar problem in Fedora and there it work to copy the Qt executable that lives somewhere in /usr/bin/.. or something to /home/<username>/bin/ . Then it worked. I don't know whether this solves your problem or whether it is very elegant, but it worked for me ...
