Topic: ctest failed tests!
Hi everyone,
I am becoming a new oofem user, I just installed oofem on my system, ubuntu 15.10 64bit,
went through the steps mentioned on the installation page as follows:
First add the folowing lines to your sources.list:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/eudoxos/ppa/ubuntu karmic main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/eudoxos/ppa/ubuntu karmic main
Second: tell ubuntu to trust this PPA (Obvious: you must make sure you trust the PPA owner before installing their software…)
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 92DE8183
Third: update and install:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install oofem oofem-mpi oofem-oofeg oofem-doc
Quick Installation
You will need the build-essential (to build) and the xorg-dev (for use of oofeg) packages. On a Ubuntu/Debian system run:
sudo apt-get install build-essential xorg-dev
Create a build directory
mkdir -p ~/build/debug/
Configure oofem target
cd ~/build/debug
cmake ~/oofem.git/
Run make to compile the required targets as
cd ~/build/debug; make
The oofem executable will be created in ~/build/debug directory
Important notice: Use the debug build while you get everything to work, but make sure to compile an optimized version for running serious simulations (CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release). The optimized version will be orders of magnitudes faster than the Debug build.
mkdir -p ~/build/release/
cd ~/build/release/
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ~/oofem.git/
make
After this step I didn't run any build option commands and I directly ran "ctest" and I got the following errors:
The following tests FAILED:
231 - test_tmpatch46.in (Failed)
254 - test_MPS_block02_tmsm.in (Failed)
256 - test_MPS_block01_tmsm.in (Failed)
271 - benchmark_tr2shell7XFEM_CZ.in (Failed)
Errors while running CTest
Most of tests were run successfully and just the above 4 tests failed.
would you please help me understand what the problem is?
I would also like to know how to run a simple example and visualize my results.
What tool should I use for pre-processing? how to run it and how to visualize the results?
Is there any comprehensive manual from which I can get my hands on the usage of the code please?
Thanks a bunch
Souren
