Problem when installing MOFEM Core Library

[daniele.barbera86]

I have recently decided to have a fresh install on my new Workstation with Ubuntu all went smooth until I had to install Core Library the command I used is the following:

spack dev-build -j4 \

--source-path $HOME/mofem_install/mofem-cephas \

--keep-prefix \

mofem-cephas@develop+adol-c~copy_user_modules+docker~ipo+med+mgis~shared+slepc+tetgen \

build_type=Release install_id=0 ^petsc+X ^boost+python+numpy

but I am getting this error:

Error: trying to set variant "mgis" in package "mofem-cephas", but the package has no such variant [happened during concretization of mofem-cephas@develop+adol-c~copy_user_modules+docker~ipo+med+mgis~shared+slepc+tetgen build_type=Release dev_path=/home/fit-ubuntu/mofem_install/mofem-cephas install_id=0 ^boost+numpy+python ^petsc+X]

The dependencies were installed without a single error at first shot, thanks to the useful guide on compilers. But this is totally unexpected.

Can any of the team/community give me some help to continue the installation?

Many thanks!

Daniele

Hey Daniel,

Can you check what branch of spack you are using? We recently add the mgis variant to the dev branch.

Follow instructions, and try again,

cd ~/mofem_install/spack 

git fetch -a

git checkout spack_develop_v0.21

git pull

Try again. Let me know how it goes.

Regards,

Lukasz

We got this sorted but I forgot to update this after Daniele messaged me directly. I'm not 100% sure what Daniele did exactly. I recommended swapping to the lukasz/spack_develop_v0.21 spack branch but I'm not clear if Daniele also removed +docker or not.

The main thing being that there's no rush to resolve the issue.

I solved the issue by:

1. Swithching to Luaksz Spack

2. By switching to develop branch.

Yes I removed +docker as well
