Thanks, it sucessfully compiled OpenFOAM 8 in Manjaro from the custom repository: https://github.com/arch4edu/arch4edu/wiki/Add-arch4edu-to-your-Archlinux Pre-built binaries of this package and its dependencies can be found in the arch4edu repository.

Hi, sorry but I won't handle any issues on Manjaro.

If you get issues when building this package, you may want to use the prebuilt binaries.

@massisenergy, @boyuanyu: You most likely don't have enough memory for a parallel build. Set MAKEFLAGS=-j<num> in your makepkg.conf, where <num> is a small number, and build again.

Hello. I encountered a problem for compiling OpenFOAM-8.1 from AUR. After the installation proceeds for 10 minutes, nearly everything on my machine is freezed. For a rather long time (nearly 1.5 hours), the installation cannot complete.

I am using manjaro 20.0.3 on a laptop.

Thanks, that's quick. But it fails with the error message in Manjaro Lysia 20.0.3, as the following:

g++: fatal error: Killed signal terminated program cc1plus
compilation terminated.
make: *** [/home/msr/.cache/yay/openfoam/src/OpenFOAM-8/wmake/rules/General/transform:25: /home/msr/.cache/yay/openfoam/src/OpenFOAM-8/platforms/linux64GccDPInt32Opt/src/thermophysicalModels/chemistryModel/chemistrySolver/chemistrySolver/chemistrySolvers.o] Error 1

Note, it's similar error as mentioned for the esi version also: https://develop.openfoam.com/Development/openfoam/-/issues/1795

Hello Petronny,

Thanks for your time & effort to maintain this repository. Would you please take some time to update to version 8, released about a week ago?

Hi, what about latest patch of v7 https://github.com/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-7/archive/20200120.tar.gz

@Xwang if it is still relevant, in the appropriate directory you could go with: touch cavity.foam && paraview $_ &

I have the following issue using paraFOAM.

When I try to follow the cavity test case as in the OpenFOAm user guide I get the following message:


paraFoam &
[1] 285428
[andreak@n752vx cavity]$ FATAL ERROR: The official reader module for OpenFOAM data does not exist on
your system.  This means that the version of ParaView you are using was not
compiled with OpenFOAM, or distributed with a packaged version of OpenFOAM.

For information on packaged versions of OpenFOAM/ParaView and compilation of
OpenFOAM/ParaView, see https://openfoam.org/download

Alternatively, you might be able to view your OpenFOAM data with the reader
module provided with ParaView by running:
    paraFoam -builtin


[1]+  Uscita 1                paraFoam

So I try to use the -builtin option and I get:


[andreak@n752vx cavity]$ paraFoam -builtin &
[1] 285430
[andreak@n752vx cavity]$ Created temporary 'cavity.foam'
Cannot open data file " --mesa "

Do you know how to solve it?

It seems (but I'm not sure) that this library is missing: libPVFoamReader_SM.so
