Summary0002756: Issue on installing openfoam on Cray XC40
DescriptionI'm trying to install openfoam 4.1 on cray XC40 with Gcc environment, 64bit and 64 label size. I have managed to install it but its giving "Cannot find file "points" in directory "polyMesh" in time down to constant.

While installing i got stuck with error ".../makefiles/apps39: recipe for target 'mesh' failed. Because it was looking for "lib" instead of lib64. I managed to get rid of the error by creating softlink to lib64.

It would be very helpfull if someone helps me on this.

"Cannot find file points" means your target case directory does not have a mesh. This is not an issue, it is lack of understanding of the basics of using OpenFOAM.

You are right I'm new to openFOAM. I'm working as a system admin, I just want to ensure that the installation is fine. I'm getting below notification while doing preprocessing. Then its giving the "Cannot find file "points" in directory "polyMesh" in time down to constant" error. Installation is on 64 bit arch and label size 64.

new cannot satisfy memory request.
This does not necessarily mean you have run out of virtual memory.
It could be due to a stack violation caused by e.g. bad use of pointers or an out of date shared library
./preprocess.sh: line 1: 4845 Aborted blockMesh
