Hi,

Before the installation verify that when you launch "python" in a terminal is PYTHON2

Good install

Re: Procedure to install salome_meca 2019 on Ubuntu 18.04

After a fresh install of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, using the script provided, I could successfully install SM2019. However, there was an issue with MFront. MFront wasn't working.

Upon executing mfront in salome shell, I was getting error similar to following :

in file ......../sysconfig.py [line 4xx]
module not found '_sysconfigdata_m_x86_64.....'

Upon looking at the Mfront/bin folder, I realized that the binaries are named with version number as mfront-3.2.1, tfel-x.y.z etc. So I just created symlinks to all those files without version number in the same folder as

ln -s mfront-3.2.1 mfront
ln -s tfel-x.y.z tfel
.....

After this the mfront started working properly without any issue.

I am not sure if everyone is having this issue or its just me. But this apparently solved my problem. I had experienced this issue of mfront on ArchLinux install as well.
Reporting it here just in case someone comes across the same issue.

Hi,

I tried the procedure on freshly installed ubuntu 18.04-4 and 18.04-5 several times. However, unfortunately every time I launched the application, choosing "mesh" module resulted in following error:

SIGSEGV 'segmentation violation' detected. Address 8

The only warning I received during installation was:

Warning: the directory /home/username/salome_meca/V2019.0.3_universal/modules/EUROPLEXUS_201901/lib/salome is in a path variable but does not exist

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks,
Abbas

Re: Procedure to install salome_meca 2019 on Ubuntu 18.04

Hi sameer,

thanks for the reply. No, It has integrated graphics. However, following the procedure in link (code-aster.org/forum2/viewtopic.php?id=23568), I installed latest version of salome from "salome-platform.org" and it is working without problem. But when trying to access asterstudy module, I receive another error "failed to activate module asterstudy".

Is there any way to have it running on my system?

Thanks

No I installed salome_meca 2019 (fully automated installation script) and I received SIGSEGV 'segmentation violation' error (when I activated mesh module).

However, I didn't have any problem about salome and its modules running on my pc (salome 9.6.0).

what is the reason? is there any solution?

Thanks
