[SOLVED] Installing overture

Hi everybody.

I'm trying to install a programm named Overture. Since i'm not a pro i followed the instructios i found in the official web site step by step. Here's the link.

https://computation.llnl.gov/casc/Ov...all/index.html

I'm having troubles with perl5 libs:

once i've installed all what the program need (a++, open motif, mesa, hdf, gfortran, gcc, petsc) i finally run the configure of overture itself with these instructions:

APlusPlus=/home/alessandro/overture/A++P++-0.7.9d/A++/install/
export APlusPlus

OpenGL=/home/alessandro/overture/Mesa-7.2
export OpenGL

XLIBS=/usr/
export XLIBS

MOTIF=/usr/
export MOTIF

HDF=/home/alessandro/overture/hdf5-1.6.5
export HDF

Overture=/home/alessandro/overture/Overture.v23
export Overture

PETSC_DIR=/home/alessandro/overture/petsc-2.3.2/
export PETSC_DIR

PETSC_ARCH=linux
export PETSC_ARCH

PETSC_LIB=$PETSC_DIR/lib/$PETSC_ARCH
export PETSC_LIB

LAPACK=/usr/
export LAPACK

OpenGL=/usr/
export OpenGL

./configure multigrid petsc useHDF5 opt FC=gfortran CC=g++-4.3 cc=gcc-4.3

I use versione 4.3 because is the one suggested in the guide, i also tried with the new version but it doesen't fix the problem. Now i finally digit make, and after 15 minutes compiling i get:

/usr/lib/perl5/5.12.1/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/CORE: file not recognized: Is a directory

actually the path written hier is full of files, a lib***.so (the lib?) and a lot of ***.h files.

i have no idea, any suggestion?
thx, and maybe sorry for my english.

it would help to know what operating system you are using ?

it looks like it was designed for red hat ( RHEL 5.5)

Welcome to LQ.

? May be edit Overture.v23/bin/Makefile , line 47, 56 to
OV_PERL_LIBRARIES = $(OV_RPATH)$(OV_PERL_LIB)
http://www.freelists.org/post/overtu...piling-error,4
... or use the other suggested solution on the same page.

Found with Google .. Overture.v23/bin/Makefile ..

My "Overture" notes from today ( I got other errors after the above.)

Quote:

Overture.v23 : Example Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick, 64bits.
The prerequisites can be installed with Synaptic / apt.
( Except A++P++ ? )

sudo apt-get install libpetsc3.1-dev petsc-dev x11proto-print-dev \
libhdf4-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa-dev libmotif-dev libperl-dev \
libxpm-dev libxp-dev libxi-dev

The Ubuntu csh prompt = % will not appear in all Linux :
csh % source defenv (Edited 'defenv' to actual env, mostly /usr/).
csh % ./configure CC=g++-4.3 cc=gcc-4.3
csh % make

thanks for the answers

@johnvv i'm using open suse 11.1, the o.s. suggested for using this program

anyway i solved the problem replacing all the libraries with older versions, no errors compiling now.

you are aware that openSUSE 11.1 is past it's END OF LIFE

there is no longer any support for it
No updates
no bug fixes
no nothing
