[gmx-users] problems when installing gromacs 4.5.3 or 4.5.4 with GPU's

[Jordi Inglés]

Hi,

I'm compiling gromacs with gcc compiler (v 4.3.2), cmake (2.8.3) and 
OpenMM 2.0 in a SLES 11.0 Linux.

I follow the instructions in the page and it seems that the compilation 
goes fine.

gpu01:/scratch/jingles/gcc/gromacs-4.5.3 # ls -ltra src/kernel/mdrun-gpu
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 518294 Mar 28 10:16 src/kernel/mdrun-gpu

But when I try to install the application I obtain this error:

make install-mdrun

-- Using default library suffix: "_gpu"

make[1]: *** [src/kernel/CMakeFiles/install-mdrun.dir/rule] Error 2
make: *** [install-mdrun] Error 2

It seems that CMakeRelink.dir it's empty (I supose that the own 
compilation cleans it). the libgmx_gpu.so.6 exist in her source directory:

gpu01:/scratch/jingles/gcc/gromacs-4.5.3 # ls -ltra 
src/gmxlib/libgmx_gpu.so*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3378435 Mar 28 10:11 src/gmxlib/libgmx_gpu.so.6
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      15 Mar 28 10:11 src/gmxlib/libgmx_gpu.so -> 
libgmx_gpu.so.6


Have you got any idea about the problem? I tried to compile with the 
--debut-output --debug-trycompile options of cmake that don't clean the 
compilation after finishing for checking that CMakeRelink.dir is empty 
or not, but it seems that still continues empty.

Thanks for any advise.
