Unable to install LiGGGHTS on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Submitted by osj8680 on Thu, 09/13/2018 - 12:20

Hello,

I'm trying to compile/install LIGGGHTS latest version but I'm having problem as followings:

~/LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC/src$ make auto
Creating list of contact models completed.
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/ohs/LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC/src/Obj_auto'
Makefile:425: *** 'Could not find a suitable mpi compiler (mpicxx or mpic++). Please specify one in the MAKE/Makefile.user using the MPICXX_USR variable or set USE_MPI to "OFF"'. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/ohs/LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC/src/Obj_auto'
Makefile:106: recipe for target 'auto' failed
make: *** [auto] Error 2

All the setup is by default. I din't change anything.

Thank you.

Is there actually a version of MPI installed on your system? On a bare Ubuntu system you typically have to (sudo apt-get) install the packages
libopenmpi-dev
libopenmpi1.10
