Mac OS install

[Scott Calabrese Barton]

I ran into an issue installing OpenFCST on the Mac.  I'm using El Capitan 10.11.2 with all supporting libraries already installed. I build open-mpi using Homebrew gcc 5.3. Here's my build command for OpenFCST:

./openFCST_install --boost-dir=/usr/local/opt/boost/ --p4est-dir=/usr/local/opt/p4est/ --metis-dir=/usr/local/opt/metis/ --petsc-dir=/usr/local/opt/petsc/ --trilinos-dir=/usr/local/opt/trilinos/ --deal-dir=/usr/local/opt/dealii/

I encounter an error when building OpenFCST_2D:

Installing OpenFCST_2D

Where the file `OpenFCST_2D-build-err.log' reads:

g++: error: unrecognized command line option '-Qunused-arguments'

make[4]: *** [source/CMakeFiles/fuel_cell-2d.bin.dir/all] Error 2

make[3]: *** [all] Error 2

 

Somewhere that option is added, probably because MAKE thinks I'm using CLANG instead of GCC.  Any suggestions of how to fix this?

Hi Scott,

I am sorry but we do not have any experience with Mac OS X compilation. OpenFCST build and execution is tested nightly on OpenSUSE 13.1 and 13.2 (it also works with Leap), and Ubuntu, but we do not use Macs at this point. My first suggestion would be to try to install a VirtualBox on your Mac running OpenSUSE.

If you want to help us get OpenFCST running on a Mac OS X we can try to help as much as possible. For now the first question I have is:

a) You write: 

--boost-dir=/usr/local/opt/boost/ --p4est-dir=/usr/local/opt/p4est/ --metis-dir=/usr/local/opt/metis/ --petsc-dir=/usr/local/opt/petsc/ --trilinos-dir=/usr/local/opt/trilinos/ --deal-dir=/usr/local/opt/dealii/

Do you actually have boost, p4est, and all the other packages installed in the specified location?

I would suggest that you try installing the program first with:

./openFCST_install

It will most likely not work, but the .log file might provide more information. In this case, the script will first run the CMakeList file in openfces/contribs/deal.II which has a lot of checkpoint to see what might be the issue. This might provide us with more info regarding debugging.

I hope this helps. Best,

Marc
