Hi,

You should not have to update the operating system but can just update the compilers.

Best regards

Hi Matthias

Thanks for your reply. Would it be wise then to upgrade the OS of the machine to 14.04 (now it is only 12.04 Ubuntu) which will automatically ask for compiler repositories more updated ? In the case I would guess that the boost version for C/C++ would have to be something more updated to be compatible with the updated compilers (say boost_1_55_0 or beyond, which is now only boost_1_54_0)?

My machine was however, a DellR730.

Thanks
Swagata

Hi All

I am installing ALPS on my Server with 64 bit processor arcitecture and the
version I using is alps-2.2.b3-r7462-src-with-boost.tar.gz
<http://alps.comp-phys.org/static/software/releases/alps-2.2.b3-r7462-src-with-boost.tar.gz>
. And I am encountering this error each time I try installing it. The last
part of my error information is given below. Please suggest.
"

For information, I have installed the same version on my other servers with
similar architecture.

Suggestions would be of real help.

Thanks
Swagata

This seems to point to an incompatibility between your compiler and the machine you are running it on. Please make sure that you use a very recent compiler and assembler. You can find more answers about this issue - which is not related to ALPS - by searching the web for the error message below
