Yade

Installation YADE, Source Code, Compilation

Asked by ehsan benabbas

Hi folks,
I'm very new with YADE and linux and have a problem with installation of YADE source code on my Ubuntu 18 which has been installed on VMware software (my host windows is windows 10).
I've wen through installation instruction linke below

https://yade-dem.org/doc/installation.html

I hope i've done everything correcty by now, I have no idea about "Compilation" section. From the very frist sentence, does it mean to creat new folders like myYade, and 3 others inside it or it has another meaning? Even about the "cmake" commands, I don't know what are those clearly since I'm pretty new in Linux.

The thing I do is that, I use "cd ......./trunk" and then try to use CMake commands like "cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=........./myYade/build" the problem is I get the following Error:

Forget compilation, just type:

sudo apt-get install yade

into the terminal.

You now have yade fully installed on your computer. You can test it by typing:

yade

into a terminal.

Thank you Robert

the thing is I've installed the package version. But I need the source code to develop it and make some changes for my research. That's why I need to compile the source code.

In terms of cmake errors, which relate to missing dependencies (external packages) you should read carefully https://yade-dem.org/doc/installation.html#prerequisites and check you've installed everything that's listed there. It seems it's not the case.

In terms of general YADE using, and if you're new to all this Linux stuff, it's highly worth to spend some time gaining confidence in the field, before aiming to YADE results...

Actually YADE research is a good opportunity to train and gain confidence in Linux and computers, but do not expect your YADE progress to be fast in a first phase...

Thank you all for your comments. I went through my error by considering your comments and found out my issue belonged to VTK package and its configuration. After solving that issue, I get a new one which is about gts. The error message is:

-- Could NOT find gts (missing: PY_gts)
-- Use embedded version of gts. Please, consider installing the corresponding package
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:677 (IF):
  if given arguments:

    "GREATER" "5"

  Unknown arguments specified

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

So, I know I have already installed the latest version of PY-gts . What is the solution?

Thank you so much for your help

Can you help with this problem?
