Dear TELEMAC Support Team,
I hope this email finds you well. I am reaching out to seek your assistance regarding some issues I have encountered while installing and running TELEMAC-MASCARET on the Compute Canada Graham HPC cluster. Despite following the installation and compilation steps provided in the TELEMAC documentation, I am facing errors related to shared library loading during the execution of simulations.
Details of the Issue:
1- Installation and Setup:
-I have set up the environment by loading the appropriate Python and MPI
modules:
module load python/3.11.5
module load openmpi
-Created and activated a virtual environment for managing dependencies:
python -m venv myenv
source myenv/bin/activate
-Installed necessary Python packages (numpy, scipy, matplotlib) using pip:
pip install numpy scipy matplotlib
-Set environment variables and sourced the setup script:
export METISHOME=~/opt/metis-5.1.0
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$METISHOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
source /home/mjafarz/my_opentelemac/configs/pysource.gfortranHPC.sh
2- Compilation:
-Recompiled TELEMAC-MASCARET to ensure all libraries were correctly linked:
compile_telemac.py
3- Execution:
-Attempted to run the TELEMAC-MASCARET simulation using an example case
(t2d_wind.cas):
cd /home/mjafarz/my_opentelemac/examples/telemac2d/wind
telemac2d.py t2d_wind.cas --ncsize=4
-Encountered the following error during execution:
/home/mjafarz/my_opentelemac/examples/telemac2d/wind/t2d_wind.cas_2024-07-14-15h30min28s/out_user_fortran: error while loading shared libraries: libmetis.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Despite verifying that libmetis.so exists in the specified directory (~/opt/metis-5.1.0/lib), the error persists. I have also confirmed that the LD_LIBRARY_PATH includes the path to libmetis.so.
Request for Assistance:
I kindly request your assistance in resolving this issue. Any guidance on additional steps or troubleshooting methods to ensure proper linking and execution of the TELEMAC-MASCARET simulations would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your support and I look forward to your response.
