I tried the path libmesh_config := /usr/local/bin/libmesh-config and ran make miscellaneous_ex11.cc and it gives the following error: /bin/sh: 1: /usr/local/bin/libmesh-config: not found /bin/sh: 1: /usr/local/bin/libmesh-config: not found /bin/sh: 1: /usr/local/bin/libmesh-config: not found /bin/sh: 1: /usr/local/bin/libmesh-config: not found /bin/sh: 1: /usr/local/bin/libmesh-config: not found Compiling miscellaneous_ex11.cc make: miscellaneous_ex11.cc: Command not found make: *** [Makefile:36: miscellaneous_ex11] Error 127
I tried starting over again with configure and make in the repo this time with the path that is more preferable as follows: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/libmesh make (executed in the folder repos/libmesh) then i ran the test miscellaneous example and it works fine again but the one that is copied in an external folder still has the same output. for the path libmesh_config := /usr/local/libmesh/bin/libmesh-config in the makefile i get the following output: /bin/sh: 1: /usr/local/libmesh/bin/libmesh-config: not found /bin/sh: 1: /usr/local/libmesh/bin/libmesh-config: not found /bin/sh: 1: /usr/local/libmesh/bin/libmesh-config: not found /bin/sh: 1: /usr/local/libmesh/bin/libmesh-config: not found /bin/sh: 1: /usr/local/libmesh/bin/libmesh-config: not found Compiling miscellaneous_ex11.cc make: miscellaneous_ex11.cc: Command not found make: *** [Makefile:36: miscellaneous_ex11] Error 127 Thank you very much for your help and i am sorry that this takes longer to be solved than expected. _______________________________________________ Libmesh-users mailing list Libmesh-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/libmesh-users
