Installation problems

[thschrader]

@Oliver:
There is a guy in the german forum who has problems with installing cfmesh.
https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=27574
He has installed openfoam 5.0. So far I know openfoam 5.0 does not support cfmesh. Is that right?
When installing bluecfd via preferences/cfd, which version will be installed (2016-1/2016-2)?
Maybe you can have a look in the thread above and give an advice. No problem to
use english, we can translate it.

Hi Christian

If I understand correctly you have two problems - firstly you receive an error message trying to build cfMesh. Please could you attach the file:
C:\Program Files\blueCFD-Core-2016\ofuser-of4\log.buildCfMeshOnBlueCFD.sh
so that we can see what error occurs?

Secondly on your work computer you are getting no output and nothing happening when you try to build cfMesh? Please could you follow the instructions in my post about bug reporting, https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic. ... 55#p216535 and copy any output that appears on the report window when you try to build cfMesh?

Hallo Oliver

Don`t know how to atach the file. Always get an error message, invalid file extension. Below the text in the file:

cd $WM_PROJECT_USER_DIR &&
{
cd cfMesh-v1.1.2 &&
{

echo "Cleaning..."
./Allwclean

echo "Getting include file name translations..."
cd $WM_PROJECT_DIR
Tfiles=$(find -name "*.T.H" | sed -r 's#.*/(.*).T.H#\1#')
Tfiles="($(echo $Tfiles | sed 'y/ /|/'))"
sedscr='s/\#include "'$Tfiles'\.H"/#include "\1.T.H"/'
cd -

echo "Changing include file names..."
for f in `find -name "*.H"` `find -name "*.C"`
do
sed -i -r "$sedscr" "$f"
done

echo "Modifying library includes..."
sed -i -r 's/^[[:space:]]*LIBS =[[:space:]]*$/\0 -lmeshTools -ledgeMesh -ltriSurface/' meshLibrary/Make/options

echo "Building..."
./Allwmake

echo "Running second build to fix up..."
./Allwmake
}
}

The thing on my computer at work I have to try on Monday.

Thanks for help.

Christian

Hallo Oliver

Don`t know how to atach the file. Always get an error message, invalid file extension. Below the text in the file:

This looks like the buildCfMeshOnBlueCFD.sh file - can you rather include the log.buildCfMeshOnBlueCFD.sh file? If you rename it to .txt you may be able to attach it...

Hallo Oliver

There is no such a file.
I have now installed it once again, and once again, used different folders, etc.
No idea what else I can do, I`m loosing hope, this can be solved on my computer.
Attached once again, a screenshot with the error.
By the way, it seems cfMesh is installed, but it isn`t linked or anything else to FreeCad.

I wonder whether this could be some conflict caused by the fact that you are running 32 bit FreeCAD whereas blueCFD is 64 bit. I would urge you to try it with 64 bit FreeCAD (and please let us know if this is indeed the issue).

If cfMesh is installed in the BlueCFD environment, then CfdOF will use it. You can check with the "Check Dependencies" function - if no missing dependencies are reported, you are good to go.

Also, please could you follow the instructions in my post about bug reporting, https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=27055 and copy all the output that appears on the report window when you try to build cfMesh? It is very hard to conclude anything from the screenshot.

A wider internet search brought me to this forum "https://stackoverflow.com/questions/454 ... ify-failed" with some suggestions to overcome certification issues
I am not a programmer, hence I am not much of a help here.
thanks,

Hello again

Tried it wit FreeCad 64 bit. Another error.

This is a tricky one that maybe has to do with SSL certificates in non-standard locations on corporate networks etc. Doesn't make sense to try and work around it at the application level. In the latest update you can at least do a manual download from the location shown in the Preferences dialog, then point the installer at that file.
