Hi all,

For some reason SU2 will not compile on our cluster, with some issue with metis, which seems weird since it came with SU2, but maybe I am overlooking something? Previously we had version 4.2.0 running on the same cluster, all I did was git pull, configure and tried make, which failed with the error output below:

/usr/bin/ld: gk_cur_jbufs: TLS reference in ../../externals/metis/libmetis.a(libmetis_a-kmetis.o) mismatches non-TLS definition in ../../externals/metis/libmetis.a(libmetis_a-error.o) section .data
../../externals/metis/libmetis.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [../bin/SU2_CFD] Error 1
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

I hope someone can give a hint what went wrong?

Regards,
Tom

Hi Tom,
have a look here: https://web.archive.org/web/20150319...?part=1&chap=3

you can try adding the flag using: export CXXFLAGS="$CXXFLAGS -fPIC" before running the configure script.

Hi,

First it did not work, but I just had to make clean and run make again, and now it works!

Thanks a lot.

Best regards,
Tom
