Post by: ad10 on October 17, 2020, 07:13:49 AM

Respected all,

I am currently using FEAP 8.3 in Ubuntu 16.04 but when I tried to install it in ubuntu 20.4, I got errors as -fPIC which I ressolved using adding -fPIC after $FF -o in main file. but still I am unable to make FEAP executive. Can you give me some suggestions how to make it executive in ubuntu 20.04

Thanks in advance

You could try downgrading your compiler.  That may work but my main suggestion would be to upgrade to the current release 8.6.  8.3 was written when operating systems and compilers had very different standards; it will become progressively much harder to make it work with new computers.  Optionally you can look for a 10 year old computer :|

You need to post the error message from the compiler. Otherwise no one has a chance to help...
