Hi List, We currently have access to a IBM p595 located elsewhere from our lab. I am trying to install Gromacs on it through ssh.
I could not install FFTW 3.1.2 but managed to install FFTW 2.1.5. After installing fftw, I followed the installation guidelines (CPPFLAGS etc) and tried to install Gromacs 3.3.3. I searched the archives and tried to overcome the errors the ./configure kept throwing at me one after the other (eg: checking for dummy main to link with Fortran 77 libraries) by trying all the options (also in various combinations if it made any sense to me to try them) that I could manage to find given in the archives eg.: ./configure --prefix=$HOME/gromacs333 --enable-mpi --program-suffix=_mpi --enable-float --with-fft=fftw2 --disable-fortran The above step does not result in any errors. But I never seem to get past the subsequent 'make' step. I tried with xlc, gcc, tried to install Gromacs without mpi option, nothing could be accomplished so far. I am not an AIX expert, neither have I experience compiling software from source files. I could not manage to contact the system admin, so I am on my own to complete this installation. In one of the old threads I read that Gromacs cannot be installed in AIX versions more than 5.1. Is that true ? http://www.gromacs.org/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=165 Any pointers or suggestions would be most welcome. I am extremely sorry for pointing the exact errors since for the past two days I have tried several different solutions suggested in the archives I am not sure which error to cut and paste. However, I have included the one instance of error as given below: ./configure --prefix=$HOME/gro333 --disable-largefile --with-fft=fftw2 --disable-fortran followed by make gives: xlc_r: 1501-224 fatal error in /usr/vac/exe/ipa64: signal 24 received make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 251. Stop. make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1. Stop. make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 2. Stop. make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1. Stop. Thank You!
