I had a problem installing OpenModelica on Leap 15.2 and now on Leap 15.3.
I have tried Tumbleweed as well.
Having opensuse rpm is really good, but I'm not sure why installation from source is that problematic.
If anyone has built from the source documented somewhere and can explain is much appreciated

Cheers

Have you tried to compile it from source? What are the issues?

I tried to compile it myself and found some small issues which are now fixed in the master.

This works for me:

sudo zypper install git-core autoconf automake clang11 gcc libexpat-devel gcc-fortran lapack libcurl-devel \

libqt5-qtbase libqt5-qtbase-devel libqt5-linguist libQt5WebKit5 libQt5WebKitWidgets-devel \

libQt5XmlPatterns5 libqt5-qtxmlpatterns-devel libqt5-qtsvg-devel readline-devel libtool \

ossp-uuid uuid-devel flex bison libboost*1_75*-devel libxml2-devel



git clone https://github.com/OpenModelica/OpenModelica.git --recursive

cd OpenModelica

./configure CC=clang CXX=clang++ QMAKE=/usr/bin/qmake-qt5 --with-cppruntime

make -j`nproc`

Hi,

Thank you very much for the reply.
I tried just now based on your instruction on Leap 15.3 and got an error :

make[1]: *** [Makefile.common:231: omc-and-runtimeCPPinstall] Error 2

make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/shahram/Documents/OpenModelica/OMCompiler'

make: *** [Makefile:12: omc.skip] Error 2

I'm not sure but is that something more to fix this issue?

Kind Regards

I need more info. Please do: make > trace.txt 2>&1
Then paste the trace.txt contents here.

Hi and thank you very much for the reply.
Please find attached trace.txt file as you required.

Kind Regards
trace.txt

That trace suggested everything worked fine, right? Was the exit-status not 0?

Yes, trace.txt looks ok as far as I can see.
I tried again with

 make 

with no option.
this time I did not get any error.
However , I cannot find omc on my /use/bin patht.
Do I need to source that PATH as well?

It working now.
I just need to set symbolic link for that
Thank you all for the help.

All the best

I think you need to do "sudo make install" to actually install it as currently, via just "make" is just built in the OpenModelica/build directory.
I don't know what is the default prefix in the configure, but you can do:

./configure CC=clang CXX=clang++ QMAKE=/usr/bin/qmake-qt5 --with-cppruntime --prefix=/usr/

sudo make install 

I actually did.
But nothing changed.
I still have

 error while loading shared libraries: libOMPlot.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I tried with /usr/local and /usr/bin . non of them worked!

If you have it built, the symlink or just launching OMEdit directly from the directory should work. If there is a problem, you need to use ldd to figure out what is going wrong. Perhaps

find build -name "*.so*"

would be helpful, too.
