[gmx-users] trouble with -DGMX_BUILD_OWN_FFTW, crashing in m4?

[Jacob Pessin]

Hi all,

I'm trying to compile 4.6.3 on my desktop, but have running into some issues with FFTW.
Specifically with "-DGMX_BUILD_OWN_FFTW=ON" make seems to crash with M4 (if I'm reading it right)

This is not dpkg install-info anymore, but GNU install-info
See the man page for ginstall-info for command line arguments

I've already have an AVX-compiled installed for other uses, building GMX of of that went fine aside from recommendations against using it in both the doc's and the build itself (upto 20% speed reduction, rather not thanks)

Any suggestions, help or pointers, would be greatly appreciated.

the only thing I can think of is create a separate build of FFTW and then direct cmake to use that one.
I was able to build a new FFTW (--enable-sse2),  but couldn't figure out how to get cmake to prefer it over the others.

I hope this is clear,
thanks

machine in question
Dell T3600 e5-1650 32gb ram (ECC) with nvidia quadro-600
Xubuntu 13.04 (ubuntu, xfce spin)
M4 ubuntu packaged 1.4.16-5

command variations attempted:
cmake ..-DGMX_GPU=OFF -DGMX_BUILD_OWN_FFTW=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/gromacs4.6.3 2>&1|tee cmakeinitall.txt
 cmake .. -DGMX_BUILD_OWN_FFTW=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/gromacs4.6.3 2>&1|tee cmakeinitall.txt
cmake .. -DGMX_GPU=ON -DCUDA_TOOLKIT_ROOT_DIR=/usr/include/cuda -DGMX_BUILD_OWN_FFTW=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/gromacs4.6.3
 cmake .. -DGMX_GPU=ON -DCUDA_TOOLKIT_ROOT_DIR=/usr/local/cuda -DGMX_BUILD_OWN_FFTW=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/gromacs4.6.3
 cmake .. -DGMX_GPU=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/gromacs4.6.3 -DGMX_BUILD_OWN_FFTW=ON 2>&1|tee cmakeInitall.txt

    All die as above after:
make -j 12
     BUT
cmake .. -DGMX_GPU=OFF -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/gromacs4.6.3avx
make -j 12
sudo make install

     Runs fine, a full copy of the terminal text for gpu=off fftw=on can be found at:
