Cant install MadAnalysis in Madgraph

Asked by Liliana

Hi I had MadAnalysis but it wasnt working (always got errors when running files) and so I decided to re download it using MadGraph but I get this error when doing so

MA5-ERROR: impossible to compile the project. For more details, see the log file:
MA5-ERROR: /home/lilianaqz/Desktop/MG5_aMC_v2_8_2/HEPTools/madanalysis5/madanalysis5/tools/SampleAnalyzer/Interfaces/compilation_root.log
MA5-ERROR: The library building aborted.

when I go to the HEPTools folder there is no madanalysis5 folder or anything.

Just in case the error that always prompted in MadAnalysis was

MA5-ERROR: impossible to execute the commands: /usr/bin/root-config --libdir --incdir --version

and when running a process the compilation.log file said this

make: /home/lilianaqz/Desktop/madanalysis5/tools/SampleAnalyzer/ExternalSymLink/Bin/root-config: Command not found
g++ -Wall -O3 -fPIC -I/home/lilianaqz/Desktop/madanalysis5/tools/ -I./ -o Main/main.o -c Main/main.cpp

   30 | #include <TROOT.h>
      | ^~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
make: *** [Makefile:101: Main/main.o] Error 1

I have ROOT downloaded and this line in the bashrc:

source /home/lilianaqz/Desktop/root-6.22.06/config/thisroot.sh

I dont know what the problem is and havent found any similar posts about this.

thanks in advance :)

You might want to change the project to MA5 such that MA5 author can help you.
My only suggestion is to do
install MadAnalysis --no_root_in_MA5

to avoid to link to root

Cheers,

Olivier
