"No rule to make target 'N', stop"

[Ebad]

Hello everyone,

During building cp2k (while installing) I have given following command in terminal:

> make -j N ARCH=Linux-x86-64-gfortran VERSION="sopt popt ssmp psmp"

which returned:

No rule to make target 'N', stop.

I have installed so far:
toolchain, gfortan, blas, lapack, python like the instructions provided in website. 

Your suggestions would be highly helpful for me.

Hi

 

You have to specify for N the number of available CPU cores, e.g. “ make –j 4 ARCH=…” if you want to run make in parallel using 4 cores.

Hi

 

Did you run the make command in the folder cp2k where the CP2K makefile is located?

if you don't understand from the screenshot, would you please give me some time?? i'm a undergrad student and i need to run cp2k for my thesis. Being a newbie, i'm facing trouble at every step you see. I will be very much grateful if you can give me some time on TeamViewer.

I know i'm maybe asking for too much, but this will be very helpful.....!!

and thanks for all these things!! :)

Hi

 

If you want to install cp2k using the toolchain, then just follow the instructions printed by the toolchain installer script after its successful completion. The arch files generated by the toolchain installer are named “local” (ARCH=local) and these should be used with the toolchain.

If you want to use the Linux-x86-64-gfortran arch file then you should define the path variables therein properly, i.e. the paths should point to the libs required to build cp2k. In that case you have to build these libs yourself somewhere or you have to collect them from a toolchain installation, but in that case, it is better to use the local arch files.

It seems you are using cp2k-6.1. Note, the latest cp2k release is 7.1.
