1. To check your system setup, execute the foamSystemCheck script in the bin/ directory of the OpenFOAM installation.......

I have a doubt that since i want to check my system setup before unpacking the files, then where is this bin/directory in the OpenFOAM installation??.....and how should i execute it??...


2. To check the version of Qt before unpacking the files, when i type qmake --version in the terminal ,then it shows :-
bash: qmake: command not found

How can it be resolved?


I know these question are very naivee but please anybody help me since this is my first simulation software i am working on.

hi
its seems you are newbie in openFoam but dont be scared just unpack zip file , then you will see in openfoam folder , bin directory then you will find foamSystemCheck in it!
then in terminal first go to that directory then type like this
./foamSystemCheck
now its executed.
there is a cookbook for openFoam install here

OK, assuming your home folder is named vivek and you install OpenFOAM in the usual folder, foamSystemCheck should be in this folder (assuming OpenFOAM 1.5 like in your other thread):

/home/vivek/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5/bin/

Install Qt using the software manager in your Linux box. Without you telling us which Linux distribution and version you are using, it becomes a bit more difficult to orient you through the installation stages. Also, any particular reason for using OpenFOAM 1.5 or can it be OpenFOAM 1.6 or 1.6.x?

Best regards,

Respected bruno

I am using open foam 1.6 on opensuse 10.3. Can you please help in installing and compiling the Qt for paraview??

Greetings Vivek,

In the link of my signature you can access to a blog post I made that has a list of threads that help with various installation issues. One of them is this:

On how to build Paraview and Qt 4.3.5, including on how to use the cmake that comes with the package ThirdParty-1.6.linuxGcc.gtgz: New user needs help

Read the thread, the steps are described there in detail.

Good luck,
Bruno

sir

1. When i type qmake --version in the terminal,it says
bash:qmake:command not found

how can i check my version??


2. after this, i downloaded qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.5 in the third party since i am installing openfoam 1.6 on open suse 10.3 and then

./makeQt

then it asks me type yes to accept this licence offer and when i type yes

it shows an error:

1. while compiling paraview 3.6.1 using

rm -rf paraview-3.6.1/platforms
makeParaView


error comes after i type makeParaView

bash:makeParaView:command not found

so, then i typed ./makeParaView, then it shows an error

HOW CAN IT BE RESOLVED??.....PLEASE HELP ME!!


2. TO COMPILE PARAVIEW WITH ALOCAL VERSION OF QT.

The user should then compile ParaView using the local version of Qt by executing makeParaView with the -qmake option, giving the full path of the newly built qmake as an argument:

makeParaView -qmake <path_to_qmake>


what is the path to newly bulit qmake??....where can it possibly be???..


SINCE I AM VERY NEW TO THIS SOFTWARE ,PLEASE HELP ME!!....

Since Qt isn't installed yet, you have no version of Qt installed!

HOW CAN IT BE RESOLVED??

It seems that you didn't unpack all of the ThirdParty binary packages.
Lets check two things:

1. Lets check whether the OpenFOAM environment is working:

   echo $WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR

2. Lets check which version of gcc is running:

   gcc -v

Best regards,
Bruno

Don't try to build ParaView until Qt is properly built!

OK, you will need to install the development tools of openSUSE:

Then try again to build Qt.

respected sir
compiling paraview with a local version of Qt
The user should then compile ParaView using the local version of Qt by executing makeParaView with the -qmake option, giving the full path of the newly built qmake as an argument:

makeParaView -qmake <path_to_qmake>

WHAT IS THE PATH TO QMAKE??...WHERE IT CAN POSSIBLY BE??

Vivek, qmake is part of Qt, so if Qt isn't firstly built properly, then you can't use it with ParaView!

Ah, OK, I didn't understand that before. The binary qmake should be here:

$WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.5/platforms/$WM_OPTIONS/bin/

[vivek070176]

i think i have done everything but still parafoam is not working ...it shows an error:


cfd@linux-bw7o:~/OpenFOAM/cfd-1.6/run/tutorials/incompressible/icoFoam/cavity> paraFoam
created temporary 'cavity.OpenFOAM'
/home/cfd/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6/bin/paraFoam: line 129: paraview: command not found


WHY???.....PLEASE HELP!!!

WHY???.....PLEASE HELP!!!

BUT while doing
The PV3FoamReader module is an OpenFOAM utility that can be compiled in the usual manner as follows:

cd $FOAM_UTILITIES/postProcessing/graphics/PV3FoamReader
./Allwclean
./Allwmake


i got some error:::

THESE ARE SOME OF THE END LINES...

Have you checked if qmake is working? Try this:

$WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.5/platforms/$WM_OPTIONS/bin/qmake --version

How did you run the makeParaView command? I suspect you ran like this:

./makeParaView -qmake $WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.5/platforms/$WM_OPTIONS/bin/

But you must run like so:

./makeParaView -qmake $WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.5/platforms/$WM_OPTIONS/bin/qmake

Actually, so you can post the output from the makeParaView command, please run it like this:

./makeParaView -qmake $WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.5/platforms/$WM_OPTIONS/bin/qmake > buildPV.log 2>&1

It won't show anything, but the file buildPV.log will have what you use to see on screen. At the end of building ParaView, if it still doesn't work, please attach the buildPV.log file here.

[vivek070176]

WHEN I USE
./makeParaView -qmake $WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.5/platforms/$WM_OPTIONS/bin/qmake > buildPV.log 2>&1

cfd@linux-bw7o:~/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-1.6> ./makeParaView -qmake $WM_THIRD_PARTY_DIR/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.5/platforms/$WM_OPTIONS/bin/qmake > buildPV.log2>&1
