problem of compiling abinit-7.4.2 on linux

Post by tzeng » Mon Oct 14, 2013 9:12 pm

Dear Colleagues,

I am completely new to abinit and I am trying to compile abinit-7.4.2 on our linux cluster but run into a problem. I wish I could get your help out of this.

Here is some information about my computer.

Operating system: Rocks 6.0 with CentOS 6.2
Each compute node:
32GB of RAM, 883GB /tmp
12 core, Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 0 @ 2.30GHz

I simply downloaded the source package of 7.4.2 and followed the installation note online (http://www.abinit.org/documentation/hel ... stall.html)

My config.log is attached.

When I `make`, I have the following error message:

(astra)abinit-7.4.2[1173] make
make all-recursive
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/fs01/tz265/LOCAL/abinit-7.4.2'

It seems I didn't configure correctly for fallback. I would deeply appreciate if any of you could tell me what I could do to solve this problem.

All my best,

Toby

You probably have a timestamp problem related to your disk storage installation. Please consult your system administrator regarding this issue.

In the meantime, you may try to unpack Abinit preserving the file timestamps by using the --atime-preserve option of tar, or the equivalent option of your preferred archive manager.
