Error while install MOOSE - PETSc has not been detected

[Abhi Kumar]

Hi All, 

I am trying to  install MOOSE on HPC cluster.  I have followed the steps mentioned in GETTING Started section by pulling and compiling libMesh. After successful compilation, I am doing make in /moose/test/ directory as mentioned. I tried "make" many times after deleting and recompiling libMesh but every time I am getting the same error.

make: *** [/home/abhishek/Desktop/projectmoose/project/moose/framework/src/predictors/AdamsPredictor.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.opt.lo] Error 1

I have set the PETSC_DIR too as shown below:

abhishek@udbhav:~/Desktop/projectmoose/project/moose/test> echo $PETSC_DIR

/home/abhishek/Desktop/projectmoose/pet6/arch-linux2-c-opt/

Can you people please help me through this. BTW I could successfully compile and install MOOSE on my Desktop. 

Regards,

Abhishek

Hi Abhi,

You should set the PETSc environment as follows:

export PETSC_DIR=/home/abhishek/Desktop/projectmoose/pet6

export PETSC_ARCH=arch-linux2-c-opt

The problem goes a bit deeper than just needing to set environment variables. 

You will also have to rebuild libmesh and make sure that it detects PETSc properly at configure time.  If it still doesn't work, you can send your config.log file in to the mailing list and we can take a closer look.  By the way, we are planning to add an --enable-petsc-required flag to libmesh that MOOSE will then use... this will stop the configure process when PETSc is not detected, rather than letting you get all the way to the step of building MOOSE and having a failure.

Thanks Kong and John, I am able to install moose by reinstalling all the libraries. Thanks once again !
