Although i am still to solve this matter, i have got the hint of using ElmerGUItester.

After reading the post, i launched the ElmerGUI tester and found that Elmer was incorrectly installed in my computer.
Thank you Mikko for the post.

Now, I could compile the Elmer software in my home directory. i would like to thank the authors of the following posts for their valuable guidelines
http://ascend4.org/Building_Elmer_on_Ubuntu_12.04

Also, i would like to thank Mikko for highlighting the importance of setting environment variables (

I can't seem to build ElmerGui on Slackware64 14.0. The link
http://ascend4.org/Building_Elmer_on_Ubuntu_12.04 was pretty helpfull in changing the location for qwt in the ElmerGUI.pri file. I've also disabled VTK by commenting out the line. But I can't fix the issue with OpenCASCADE. Version 6.3 which was successfully used to build ElmerGui, is not available for download anymore. The oldest version currently downloadable is OpenCASCADE 6.5.1. At the moment I have version 6.5.2 installed. I get the following errors when I try to build ElmerGui:
Code: Select all

Has anyone run into the same problem and found a solution? Or maybe just some pointers on how to begin to fix this ...
I'm already running Elmer on a Windows laptop and I wish to run it from my Linux desktop aswell.

Hi,
i cannot say how you can solve it.
have you tried with the option of replacing the ElmerGUI of your installation version with the ElmerGUI of a newer or older Elmer version and again compile it? this is not an innovative idea however. you need to use this if no any other option works. since there may be a chance of mismatch of compatibility of Elmer components.
yours

I fixed that with a patch (OpenCascade 6.7.0):
Code: Select all
Index: ElmerGUI/Application/cad/cadview.h
===================================================================
--- ElmerGUI/Application/cad/cadview.h (revision 6494)
+++ ElmerGUI/Application/cad/cadview.h (working copy)
@@ -50,6 +50,7 @@
#include "nglib.h"
}
+#include <iomanip>
#include <TopoDS_Shape.hxx>
class QMenu;
The patch must have DOS style end of lines to be used as-is, if you edit manually your text editor should handle that.

For those of you running to this problem on Windows OS, I wrote a small cmd/batch script a while ago. A wrong version of it has been uploaded to the
Elmer repository. Please find the correct one in the attachments of this post.
