HPC OpenLB Code Compilation Error

[achodankar]

Hello Developers,
I am having issues running the OpenLB code on the cluster. To start, I tried compiling the code on a single node. After running the make command, I get the following error:

make[1]: Entering directory `/olb-1.4r0/examples/laminar/poiseuille2d’
make[2]: Entering directory `/olb-1.4r0′
make[2]: *** No rule to make target /usr/include/c++/9/vector', needed bybuild/generic/obj/src/communication/loadBalancer.o’. Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/olb-1.4r0′
make[1]: *** [updatelib] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/olb-1.4r0/examples/laminar/poiseuille2d’
make: *** [all] Error 2

I would appreciate any advice on getting the OpenLB code running on the cluster.

Thank you.

Yours sincerely,

Abhijeet C.

This looks like an issue with your compiler environment. What compiler are you using and how did you load it into the environment? Does a simple C++ test program compile using this setup?

Hello Adrian,
Openlb runs properly when I run it on the login server. I use the make and mpirun commands, and it spits out the results. However, when I run the batch script, it starts giving me errors related to loadbalancer. If I include make cleanbuild in the script, then the error changes accordingly.

I am unable to post the batch script since the forum is blocking me, when I try to post it.

Thank you.

What kind of errors do you get from the load balancer?

Hello Adrian,
Here is the error:

Reading through you initial post again – is there a reason for not using the executable you built on the login node also on the compute node? The compilation errer point to e.g. some module missing there that is (probably loaded by default in this case) available on the login node.
