Submitted by alejandro.gutierrez on Thu, 10/05/2017 - 09:02

Dear
I am using the ubuntu that brings window 10 and I want to load LIGGGHTS, Ubuntu works fine but only in terminals. Someone has some procedure to load LIGGGHTS in this environment.
I'm new to this from loading the program.
Thank you
Alejandro

Hi Alejandro,
for installing LIGGGHTS on Ubuntu 16.04 (also within Windows 10) it should be sufficient to follow the instructions given here:
https://www.cfdem.com/media/DEM/docu/Section_start.html
Just as a side remark: Please make sure that you use the file path that is used by your Ubuntu VM and do not try to write in you NTFS file locations from Windows (i.e. just follow the instructions of the windows developers).
Cheers,
Alice

Hi Alejandro,

Can you provide the full output of the terminal (including the commands you've entered) - LIGGGHTS 3.7 works perfectly for me on Bash on Ubuntu on Windows, downloaded and installed following the standard instructions for Ubuntu.

Thanks for you help. I can load LIGGGHTS, but now I type make and said me "Command not found".
What should I add ??
Thanks

I'm assuming you mean that you are able to download the git repository, and now you're trying to build it? If so, it sounds like make isn't installed, and you'll need to type "sudo apt install make".

You'll need other dependencies as well, just as you would for Ubuntu - openmpi, libvtk6-dev, for instance. Then you can cd into the src directory, and run 'make auto'
