Please edit `config.param` and make sure that there is no `'--enable-download'` line. Also make sure there is a `'--disable-download'` line. And don’t forget to re-run `./reconfigure` then. ---

I think that it is ok now. I have FreeFem++ 4.7 in my computer. Thank for your help. Otherwise, when I do `> make check` it displays this message : ``` PASS: 3d-Leman.edp PASS: ArrayFE-3d.edp PASS: beam-3d.edp PASS: cone.edp PASS: convect-3d.edp PASS: cube-period.edp PASS: cylinder-3d.edp PASS: EqPoisson.edp PASS: extract-boundary3d.edp PASS: first.edp PASS: intlevelset3d.edp PASS: Lac.edp PASS: Laplace3d.edp PASS: LaplaceRT-3d.edp PASS: meditddm.edp PASS: NSI3d-carac.edp PASS: NSI3d.edp PASS: p.edp PASS: periodic-3d.edp PASS: Poisson.edp PASS: pyramide.edp PASS: sphere2.edp PASS: sphere6.edp PASS: Stokes.edp PASS: TruncLac.edp PASS: crack-3d.edp PASS: schwarz-nm-3d.edp PASS: cylinder.edp FAIL: Period-Poisson-cube-ballon.edp PASS: Poisson3d.edp PASS: Poisson-cube-ballon.edp PASS: refinesphere.edp FAIL: sphereincube.edp PASS: tetgencube.edp PASS: tetgenholeregion.edp **SKIP** : bottle.edp **SKIP** : fallingspheres.edp **SKIP** : Laplace-Adapt-3d.edp ============================================================================ Testsuite summary for FreeFEM 4.7 ============================================================================ **# TOTAL: 38** # PASS: 33 **# SKIP: 3** # XFAIL: 0 # FAIL: 2 # XPASS: 0 # ERROR: 0 ============================================================================ See examples/3d/test-suite.log Please report to frederic.hecht@sorbonne-universite.fr ============================================================================ make[4]: *** [test-suite.log] Error 1 make[3]: *** [check-TESTS] Error 2 make[2]: *** [check-am] Error 2 make[1]: *** [check-recursive] Error 1 make: *** [check-recursive] Error 1 ``` ---

Sorry, I’ve fixed this, those tests should be skipped. Could you please try `make check` inside the `examples/eigen` and `examples/hpddm` folder, please? ---

Looking good! And no failure in `examples/eigen`, so that will make @david.fabre happy 😄 ---

Ginea pig report on my side: compilation goes to the end but then at execution I have this: ``` (base) fabred@autonome232:FreeFem-sources-PETSC314$ src/nw/FreeFem++ dyld: Library not loaded: @rpath/libhdf5.103.dylib Referenced from: /Users/fabred/FreeFem-sources-PETSC314/src/nw/FreeFem++ Reason: image not found Abort trap: 6 ``` Indeed this dylib is present in my previous installation (FreeFem-sources/plugin/mpi/) but not in the one corresponding to your new branch. (FreeFem-sources-PESTSC314/plugin/mpi/) ---

You should have used `--without-hdf5` or whatever the flag I already gave you: we cannot clean your machine ourselves. [Previous page](https://community.freefem.org/t/problem-when-compiling-scalapack/587.md?page=1)
