Hello FOAMERS

I recently installed CAELinex 2010 and it has OF1.7.0 and when I try to run the icoFoam tutorial cases after copying the files to my hard disk:
/media/A48C3A3B8C3A0876/OpenFOAM-1.7.0/openfoam170
I get the following on my console:

caelinux@caelinux:/media/A48C3A3B8C3A0876/OpenFOAM-1.7.0/openfoam170$ cd applications/solvers/incompressible/icoFoam/

have same problem. when used OpenFOAM 2.0.0

hello brucechen

I fixed the problem by changing the "files" file in icoFoam/Make
from:

icoFaom.C
EXE = $(FOAM_APPIN)/icoFoam

to:

icoFaom.C
EXE = $(FOAM_USER_APPBIN)/icoFoam

Hope this helps.

Cheers!!

Thank you, it worked as well for Azure VM using OpenFOAM 4.1. I did not have to use the sudo bash (and I could not). So it worked as as a local compilation for my user.
