| Description | Hi, I followed the installation guide with no problem and did the user config too. My problem is when i get to test this command -------------------------------------------------------------------- " simpleFoam -help " -------------------------------------------------------------------- i got this message -------------------------------------------------------------------- " simpleFoam: command not " -------------------------------------------------------------------- Then, i tried to open a terminal in the /opt/openfoam5/etc and run again the command -------------------------------------------------------------------- " simpleFoam -help " -------------------------------------------------------------------- I got this message -------------------------------------------------------------------- ks@ks-N56JR:/opt/openfoam5/etc$ simpleFoam -help Usage: simpleFoam [OPTIONS] options: -case <dir> specify alternate case directory, default is the cwd -fileHandler <handler> override the fileHandler -listFunctionObjects List functionObjects -listFvOptions List fvOptions -listRegisteredSwitches List switches registered for run-time modification -listScalarBCs List scalar field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<scalar>) -listSwitches List switches declared in libraries but not set in etc/controlDict -listTurbulenceModels List turbulenceModels -listUnsetSwitches List switches declared in libraries but not set in etc/controlDict -listVectorBCs List vector field boundary conditions (fvPatchField<vector>) -noFunctionObjects do not execute functionObjects -parallel run in parallel -postProcess Execute functionObjects only -roots <(dir1 .. dirN)> slave root directories for distributed running -srcDoc display source code in browser -doc display application documentation in browser -help print the usage Using: OpenFOAM-5.x (see www.OpenFOAM.org) Build: 5.x-197d9d3bf20a -------------------------------------------------------------------- But when i tried with another terminal the same way, it doesn't work anymore et couldn't run anyway the small example included in the installation guide. remark: I followed the problems even if i didn't got when installing, I then installed everything missing and verified that i was on openmpi.

In one terminal you have sourced the bashrc file in OpenFOAM, in another terminal you have not. Read "User Configuration" to ensure the bashrc file is always sourced: https://openfoam.org/download/5-0-ubuntu/#user-configuration There is no issue with the OpenFOAM software here. |
