Harryyao,

you typed the wrong name for the steering file. Try to run :

My problem is solved, It is becuase I add a space between '-' and 'S' So, it doesn't work. Many thanks.

Hi Juliette
To answer your question about MPICH2, yes I did have it installed for previous versions of telemac. But the environment variable PATH did not include this old version of MPICH2, and this is why I had not remove it.

I also had gfortran installed from previous telemac version, and it was in the PATH. Because if this, I guess the automatic installer was compiling the scalar version of 6.3 using this old fortran (?) , and this is why it stopped during the parallel compilation.

I have now solved these 2 problems and 6.3 seems to work . But when I run one of my large models, I noticed 2 things:

1-- The compiler does not accept a fortran line longer than 72 characters. I tried to add:

-ffixed-line-length-132 in the gfortran command in cmd_obj in SYSTEL.CFG, but it is ignored. Can we have lines longer than 72 characters? (it worked with 6.2)

2-- I need much more than 100 sources. I tried to insert
MODULE DECLARATIONS_TELEMAC2D
in the fortran, and changed MAXSCE. This had also no effect with MAXSCE still 100 . How can I change MAXSCE and recompile?
Thank you for your advice
Thierry

Hi Thierry

About your problems:

The limitation to 72 characters is a new rule (in fact an old one which have been not applied during a long time) of the version 6.3.
You should take care in your fortran file to limit the lenght of lines (but you could use the continuation character to have more than one line)

For the sources, it seems to me that it was already written in some documents but it's totally forbidden to add the decalrations_xxx subroutine in a fortran file. If you have to modifiy the size of one variable, you should modify the source and make a full compilation of the system. Otherwise you could face to memory corruption that could cause some crash of the system which are extremely complicated to understand.

Best regards

Hi Christophe

Thanks for these clarifications.
I changed MAXSCE in delaration_telemac2d and recompiled. I also truncated all my long fortran lines to 72 characters. Things work fine now in scalar.

I have tried running Malpasset in parallel and I am having problems.
I will post them under the more appropriate topic: “Parallel installation after using the Automatic Installer”

Hello,
I have Windows XP. I downloaded "opentelemac-v6p3-windows-installer-1.0.exe" but when I run it I get the message "This installer is only for windows 64 bits". Is there another installer for Win XP?

Thank you

Hi snowdrop,

I am afraid there is not another installer for windows XP.

First, you can try to download and run the automatic installer for the v6p2 version, which you will find there :

www.opentelemac.org/index.php/binaries/v...p2-windows-installer

Next, if you really want to use v6p3, you can try to install Telemac yourself by following instructions written on this page :

I have downloaded and installed opentelemac v6p3 successfully on Windows 7 64 bit computer. When I try to install it on a Windows XP 32 bit computer I get the following error "The installer is only for windows 64 bits". Is there a version for 32 bit? The download page indicates that the installer is valid for both platform.

Thanks.

Hi,

the only installer which works for Wibndows XP 32bits is the one for the version v6p2. You can download it there:

www.opentelemac.org/index.php/binaries/v...p2-windows-installer

The installer for the v6p3 only works for 64 bits - Sorry.

Cheers
Juliette

Thank you. I have already started the installion of v6p2 and its seems to be going ok.
