code_saturne User's Forum

Hello,

Upon recently installing v4.0 on my mac (El Capitan) we came across a possible bug. I have no Salome installation on my machine, and wished to install C_S without Salome integration. However, we found that if omniorb was installed then no matter what was set in the setup file generated from 'install_saturne.py' the installation would fail because it was looking for Salome related libraries. Have you come across this before?

Hope it is in some way useful information!

Thanks

Susan

Hello,

No, I have not come across this before, and yes, this information is useful. The SALOME detection in Code_Saturne is quite complex and lacks some double-checking, so I am not as surprised about this as I would like to be.

Once you started installation with the automatic installer, you might be able to work around this issue:
- got (cd) to the build directory, which should contain a config.log file
- type "head config.log"
- copy/paste the command containing configure in your terminal, removing the "--no-create --no-recursion" which might be at the end, and adding "--without-salome".
- type (enter to run configure, then) "make && make install & make clean"

If --without-salome is not enough, adding --without-salome-yacs and --without-salome-gui might help.

I'll try to install omniorb on a machine or virtual machine to reproduce and fix this (chances are the same issue will arise on a Linux box as on OS/X). But in the meantime, before we release 4.0.4, I hope the solution above works for you.

Best regards,

Yvan
