| Summary | 0001546: Installation Library errors (libfiniteVolume.so missing) | ||||
| Description | Ubuntu 14.04 Installation of OpenFOAM via normal methods, appeared to complete successfully. However, verification of the installation failed: kevin@stig:~$ icoFoam -help icoFoam: error while loading shared libraries: libfiniteVolume.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | All I did was to install OpenFOAM 2.3.1 via standard apt-get methods, on Ubuntu 14.04. When I tried to run the first verification, I got this error. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

A few quick questions: 1- How many OpenFOAM versions do you have installed? 2- Did you follow the steps from the section "User Configuration"? Namely from this page: http://www.openfoam.org/download/ubuntu.php 3- What do you get when you run the following command? which icoFoam |

1. I had previously installed 2.3.0 as root, as at the time, you did not support the 14.04 distro (and it failed to install via non-root). I would prefer to run as myself, and saw that you now supported 14.04 directly... so I attempted to install it. I also have installed Caelus, which is based on an older version of OpenFOAM, I believe. 2. Those were the exact steps that I used to install (that was the page I used for instruction). 3. which icoFoam returns: /opt/openfoam231/platforms/linux64GccDPOpt/bin/icoFoam |

Disclaimer: I'm just a fellow bug reporter... who happens to also try and fix bugs. It's the OpenFOAM Foundation that is providing support for the Deb packages of OpenFOAM for Ubuntu... and I'm not part of said Foundation ;) As for the problem you're having, I would have to try and reproduce the same error, which I won't be able to do today. I'm not familiar enough with Caelus-CML to know how they implemented their shell environment. Nonetheless, here are a few more commands that would help diagnose the problem: ls -l $FOAM_LIBBIN/libfiniteVolume.so ldd $(which icoFoam) |

OK, then it's now more clear that this is a "user support" question and not a bug. Although it could be considered a feature request, but it wasn't formulated as such ;) As for the problem in question, this is roughly explained in the aforementioned section of the installation instructions, namely "User Configuration" at http://www.openfoam.org/download/ubuntu.php For more details, have a look at the community's wiki page on this topic: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Installation/Working_with_the_Shell - section "2.2 Using aliases to help manage multiple OpenFOAM versions". |

Wyldckat, Thanks for helping me understand it was the dual openfoam installations which were causing the more recent install to not work. I am okay with the current situation, now that I understand what is going on. You can close the ticket. Thanks again for your help. Once I realized the mis-match between the Caelus install and 2.3.1, I can sort that out on my end. |
