how to get the source
read the page you posted the link to
https://arc.liv.ac.uk/downloads/SGE/releases/8.1.9/

there is a LOT of information on that link
( under the rpm's )

there is a SRC file " gridengine-8.1.9-1.el5.src.rpm"
that you can use "rpmbuild" on in cent7.3 to build a rpm from

there is the "sge-8.1.9.tar.gz"

you can also read the README file on that page
https://arc.liv.ac.uk/downloads/SGE/...1.9/README.txt

Thank you very much for your comments. I was trying to install from "sge-8.1.9.tar.gz" but it didn't go well. I don't what I need to do after "./aimk". So I tried to use the GUI installer. It is also showing me the attached error "Can't resolve user name from current directory". Is there any way so I can install gridengine.

Best regards

for starters you REALLY do not want to install that on your normal users DESKTOP

SElinux will likely through a temper tantrum ( terrible 2's type )

normally you would use a install directory like
/usr
/usr/opt
or
/usr/www
to install something like this

also keep in mind that rhel( cent) 7 uses SystemD !!!!!! and rhel5 & 6 uses SystemV !!!

are there errors when fallowing the instructions ?

and have you read the README from the tarbal ?
