Hi,

I have complied my one on Windows Subsystem for Linux (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS). There is no tricky issues, just simply follow the given the code_saturne instruction. Yes user has to install some library and tools before compilation, such as bulid essential package, OpenMPI and Qt etc.. For GUI, I am using MobaXterm. User just launch the WLS on MobaXterm, the GUI should pop up as on the native platform.

Regards

Hello
under the WSL2 and ubuntu it is possible to install the version 6.0.2-1 available as a package in the ubuntu repository.
The GUI work out-of-the box with no need for a swparate xserver.

P.S. The version does not have the bug-fix for the compressible Module.

I tried to install code_saturne-7.0.4 on ubuntu WSL2.

I got the following error and warning:

Code: Select all

config.status: error: in `/home/robber/saturneCode/saturneBiuld/prod':
config.status: error: Something went wrong bootstrapping makefile fragments
    for automatic dependency tracking.  Try re-running configure with the
    '--disable-dependency-tracking' option to at least be able to build
    the package (albeit without support for automatic dependency tracking).
See `config.log' for more details

configure: WARNING: no HDF5 file support
configure: WARNING: no hdf5 library found; will not search for MED
configure: WARNING: no MEDCoupling file support

Please can someone point me to the ubuntu package name nedded?

I resort to the semi-automatic installation and it works fine.
I summarize my step:

after the installation of the ubuntu WSL2 on a windows 11 using apt-get I installed a program that uses a GUI (i.e. gedit) to install all the necessary library

set up in the home user directory the installation manual indication about the built directory structure

install build packages by
Code: Select all
```
sudo apt-get install build-essential
```
move on the build directory and first run of
Code: Select all
```
../../code_saturne-7.0.4/install_saturne.py
```
modify the setup file requesting the library that it is needed

second run of
Code: Select all
```
../../code_saturne-7.0.4/install_saturne.py
```

The GUI works fine, I am in the process of testing the solver
