Installing Fortran 77 compiler

Asked by John

Hi,

I am using the ubuntu and installed g77 from this link,

http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/g77-3.4

When enter madevent command, I receive

"No Fortran Complier detected....please install one"

Do I have to do something after installing the package?

John

Hello John,

We would in general recommend gfortran instead of g77. However, regarding the present question, did you try writing
which g77
?

It sounds like you need to add the directory where g77 was installed to your PATH environment variable.

Cheers,
Johan

Hi John,

What happen in a shell if you do
which g77?

If this commands works then MG5 is suppose to find it.

Cheers,

Olivier
