[FLASH-USERS] Problem with MPI while running FLASH in Docker

[Marissa Adams]

To use the docker image you want to make sure you're using the appropriate Makefile.h. Prototypes/Linux/Makefile.h is the most amenable to docker. However, it needs some small changes for the paths:


MPI_PATH   = /usr/local

HDF4_PATH  =

HDF5_PATH  = /usr/local

HYPRE_PATH = /usr/local

If FLASH is not using the appropriate Makefile.h, you can tell it to do so in the set-up script you want via the flag -site=Prototypes/Linux/

FYI you can find a list of all setup flags in section 5.2 in the User Manual: http://flash.uchicago.edu/site/flashcode/user_support/flash4_ug_4p5.pdf

Dear FLASH users,

Has anyone encountered the problem of running FLASH 4.6 from Docker image `icksa/flash4-deps`?

I received the error "/usr/local/mpich2 can't be found while run `make` command after `setup.py`, that means that MPI isn't installed (and yes, this folder is really absent in docker container). It is strange, because this image must be fully predefined and must contain all needed libraries.

I tried Docker image as a simplier way to try new version, because a primitive update of folder with FLASH from 4.4 to 4.6 version didn't work in my case: error of /usr/local/hdf5 -lz appeared and I would not want to reinstall libraries again...

Thanks in advance!
