[gmx-users] Installation problem

[itai bloch]

Hi all,

I'm having some trouble with installing gromacs-3.2.1 mpi version on
solaris 9 machine.

I have already installed the gromacs double precision on this machine
and it works fine! (is there a conflict when having both together?).

When I configure with

./configure --enable-mpi --enable-float --enable-shared

I get the error

"gmx_sgangle.c", line 397: non-constant initializer: op "U&"

When I set the compiler to gcc this compiles correctly.
gromacs usually compiles with mpich.

When I configure without --enable-shared
it does not build till the end.

I get this warning throughout the build process. (with both configurations)

*** Warning: Linking the shared library libgmx_mpi.la against the
*** static library /opt/SUNWspro/SC4.2/lib/libM77.a is not portable!


The configuration that does not complete finishes like this:

When I tried using the compiled version the run crushed after few
seconds (with some SIGBUS error in the 'run_name.job' file.

Please, is there anyone who can guide me with it???
Thanks,
Itai.
