I'm trying to install the source pack of OpenFOAM 1.7.1 on a server location where I don't have access to the .cshrc file (I'm using csh).

So I follow the instructions (http://www.openfoam.com/archive/1.7....oad/source.php) as best I can but once I run the ./Allwmake and it finishes I run the ./foamInstallationCheck and it returns this:

Executing ./foamInstallationTest:


Checking basic setup...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FATAL ERROR: OpenFOAM environment not configured.

    Please refer to the installation section of the README file:
    <OpenFOAM installation dir>/OpenFOAM-1.7.1/README
    to source the OpenFOAM environment.

But as far as I can tell I've set the environment variables correctly and I don't see any other way to set them then the way defined in the installation instructions.

Any suggestions?

You don't have access? The file should be in your home folder! Namely "$HOME/.cshrc". Now, it's a whole other issue if the $HOME variable is undefined. To check this by running:

echo $HOME

If it outputs nothing, then this is what's going wrong with your installation.

Allwmake should have complained in the same way as foamInstallationCheck! You should have seen a million error messages!

You could have said how exactly you set those variables. It would be a lot easier for us to figure out what happened
