Hello,

Could you provide the other recommended info (install method, logs, ...as per the forum guidelines) ?

Hi

Attached
Thanks

Hello,

You still did not specify whether you used the automatic installer or the MED configure directly.

If you used the installer, could you specify your setup file ?

In any case, if you export HDF5HOME to the HDF5 path before running the install, the issue should disappear (though this should not be necessary).

Hi

I did and I hope it is the right way

export HDF5HOME=/home/sofiane/Code_Saturne/4.0.6/hdf5-1.8.14/arch/Linux_x86_64
echo $HDF5HOME
/home/sofiane/Code_Saturne/4.0.6/hdf5-1.8.14/arch/Linux_x86_64/

but still have the same error when installing MED

Please help

Sofiane

Hello,

could you post the "config.log" from the MED build directory (a subdirectory in the Code_Saturne build if you used the automatic installer) ?.

Yvan

I have attached it
I am using the setup file and executing the install_saturne.py

Hello,

It seems the error is due to a missing "-lz" library. So you must install libz and its headers.

Which type of system are you running on ?

Yvan

Hi

I am using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Hello,

Not sure of the package's name on Ubuntu, but I think it is libz4g-dev.
