Errors when install FreeFEM on Mac from sources

Dear all,

I am now trying to install FreeFEM on my Mac from source files. And I met an error when I

make petsc-slepc

The corresponding log is ‘

configure.log (38.5 KB)

Is it because my python version (3.9.6) is old or anything else?

Have you read the error message at the bottom of the file? The error has nothing to do with Python, as written in the file…

Thanks for your reply, after installing some libraries (mpich, gel, etc) following the installation guide. I install FreeFEM on my Mac successfully.

You should not have install MPICH or GSL yourself, but anyway…

Hi, I met an error when I run the following code on my Mac

3Dparallel_Parmmg_global_Lshape_Poisson.edp (2.3 KB)

It says

by the way, there are 10 cores in my Mac, and when I choose less than 5 cores, it works well. What’s more, I run it on Ubuntu installed on my Mac, it runs well even when I choose 10 processes. I wonder why this error happened only on my Mac when I choose more than 5 processes. Is this situation normal?

Stick to Mmg instead of ParMmg.

Hi, I reinstall FreeFem on my Mac by compiling, however, I met a new problem when

 
make -j<nbProcs>

it shows

Do you know how to handle this problem?

After adding --with-hdf5=no, I reinstall FreeFem successfully.
