Installation error

[m.arunprasad1987]

I am new to ubuntu and new to this feappv.  I am trying to install the software in my system by error shows up.  As per the instructions in the webpage of feappv I edited the makefile.in.  But when I am trying to use the command to install as make followed by its directory, error shows up as "No such file or directory".

It will be helpful if I get any help regarding this.

Did you remember to define the environment variable as indicated in makefile.in?

#------------------------------------------------------------------------
# To use this makefile the path for "$(FEAPPVHOME3_1)" must be set using
#   setenv FEAPPVHOME3_1=/....            (in .chrc or .tchrc)  or
#   export FEAPPVHOME3_1=/....            (in .bashrc or file used)
# N.B. Information after the slash defines to FEAPPV directories.

Thanks for your help,  But when I gave the command make install it gives me the error as

fatal error: X11/Xlib.h: No such file of directory
compilation terminated

What should I do for rectifying this error.

[Prof. S. Govindjee]

You need to have the X11 development libraries installed on your computer.  Use your package manager to install these.  At the same time you should also install the BLAS and LAPACK development libraries.

Thank you for your help.  I have done as per the instructions.  If we successfully install feappv in our ubuntu system will it show the message as shown in picture..?

I have another doubt that how to run an input file using feap..?  whenever i run an input file it gives an error of "No such file or directory"

[M. Kurdi]

When running an input file from the command prompt you need to add -i before the filename with no space, i.e. -iInput.dat. Then you need to call the FEAP executable with its directory locator,i.e. /user/ver31/main/./feappv from the current directory of the input file. The picture shows that you have the executable.

[Prof. S. Govindjee]

you are running make in the top level FEAPpv directory and that is correct.  The executable is in the folder main.
"cd main" and then "feappv"
