detailed step-by-step tutorial for manual installation

Hello,

What do you mean by "manually"?

Anyways, here are the installation directions [1].

Cheers,

I am looking for a tutorial to install yade without performing apt-get, manually installing the prerequisites, since I am using a server with multiple processors and cores, however, this equipment is getting inferior performance to that of a notebook. I believe that a manual installation would allow a gain in performance and efficiency in the use of resources. I tried performing the manual installation several times, however, due to my little knowledge, I must be doing something wrong.
Although you have an explanation of how to do the manual installation in the yade documentation, this explanation is vague and unintuitive. I believe that if someone has already done this installation before, they should have created a step-by-step guide, such a document would be of great help.

Which version of linux you are trying to compile yade on? What kinds of errors are you encountering? Which part of the installation doesn't work? It is entirely possible that such a document exists. Please refer to [1]. Help us help you.

Do you want to use multiple nodes (MPI)? The current release of Yade is limited to single-node parallelization since it is built on OpenMP. If you need to use multiple nodes, you need a DEM software built on MPI, like LIGGGHTS or ESys-Particle.

Manual installations are tricky, and the compiled installation instructions need to be tailored for each linux flavor. For any linux version other than Ubuntu, you need to compile the third party libraries before compiling Yade. You will find some people in this forum who installed Yade on a CentOs server. I've installed Yade on Ubuntu servers.

>this explanation is vague and unintuitive.

I find the installation instructions clear and concise for Ubuntu installations.

I agree. If the guide does not exist, I will encourage you to figure it out and write it up for the community :-).

Hello,
I have just succeed in installing yade on centos, which is very similar to your case.
my point is it is hard to give a detailed step-by-step process as everyone's os and evvironment is different. you can post every problem you encountered here, and after some of them are solved, you will have plenty of solutions yourself.
