The openfoam210 package for ubuntu 11.10 is available and downloadable from the internet. So perhaps there is something wrong with your apt setup. Please type the following in a terminal window. If it returns nothing, there is a problem with the setup of apt; if it returns something, I suspect a problem with your internet connection: sudo apt-cache show openfoam210 |

Hi! Here's a command that is useful for seeing the download link, which is also useful for diagnosing if that is a problem with the link generation: apt-get -qq --print-uris install openfoam210 Oh, and the other possibility is that the VM itself doesn't have access to the internet... |

Hi, thanks to both of you for your help. when I type in: sudo apt-cache show openfoam210 It asks for my virual machine's password, then I get: N: Unable to locate package openfoam210 E: No package found when I type in: apt-get -qq --print-uris install openfoam210 then I get: E: Unable to locate package openfoam210 when I previously typed in: sudo apt-get update I got:a huge list of, with the last one before an error: Hit http://security.ubuntu.com oneiric-security/universe translation-en followed by: Err http://www.openfoam.org lsb_release/-cs i386 Packages 404 not found then more messages You may be right about something wrong with my internet access. I am putting all my messages into the internet from the same machine running windows xp, but from the virtual machine with Ubuntu, I get to the openfoam website fine, but when I click on the 'bug reporting' link, I get an Error across all the screen: Blocked by Content security policy This page has a content security policy that prevents it from being embedded in this way. Firefox prevented this page from loading in this way because the page has a content security policy that disallows it. Cheers, Floren |

Hi, there was a link on the screen with the 'blocked by security policy' error, something about security. I clicked on it, and then I could get into the 'bugs' area. This note is typed in firefox in ubuntu in the virtual machine. I started again in the terminal from 1. to 3. notes to download openfoam2.1.0, but got the same errors, 404 etc Cheers, Floren |

It looks like you made a mistake when copying step 1 from the website. It requires backquotes `, not upright quotes '. For your case, using 11.10 (oneiric), do the following to fix the problem. In a terminal, type: sudo sh -c "echo deb http://www.openfoam.org/download/ubuntu oneiric main > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openfoam.list" Then resume the instructions from step 2 (sudo apt-get update) |
