open TELEMAC-MASCARET The mathematically superior suite of solvers

This is linked to the configuration you use...
You probably don't use win7gforsdbg for this compilation
You could add the line in the general group

Then what is the solution? could you specify what is meant by general group here

You probably try to use a config file from a previous installation of Telemac which is not fully compatible with this one.
Add the line in each group will probably do the job...
Or add it in the beginning of the config file where a general group should be located

Ok, I understand the general group...but what do you mean by config file from a previous installation of Telemac...Should I download the config file for v7p0?

No
In each version there is some config file given as example. And normally, those config file are correct so they should have this line already include.
But some people sometimes prefer to copy their config file tuned for a previous version and just change the version number. In such case, the changes done in the config file are not seen and we face this kind of problem

Regards

I downloaded the config file systel_v7p2.cfg from this link wiki.opentelemac.org/doku.php?id=instruc...tomatic_installation
Can you kindly provide me with the link from where I can download the alternative config file...

Thanks

If you downloaded the config file in the given link, you don't have to modify it as the line is already in...
so you don't have any reason to receive the error message you show us at the beginning.
There is probably another problem elsewhere.
Sorry about that

Regards

Hi,

try this config I am uploading here and it works for v7p2, make sure at line root: you appointed to same directory where your source code is and no space in your parent foler.
