Dear Prof. Troyer, There was no reply to problem of not being able to invoke vispython from the Cygwin command line: ENUKPERE@ENUKPERE-PC /cygdrive/c/cygwin/ALPS/bin$ vispython -bash: vispython: command not found How do I proceed? Thanks for your untiring effort in answering all the various posts.

Listed below are the instructions I followed along with what I actually did: Download a source package of ALPS: I downloaded alps-2.1.1-r6176-src.tar.gz <http://alps.comp-phys.org/static/software/releases/alps-2.1.1-r6176-src.tar.gz> (I was wondering if downloading alps-2.1.1-r6176-src-with-boost.tar.gz <http://alps.comp-phys.org/static/software/releases/alps-2.1.1-r6176-src-with-boost.tar.gz> would be better). Create a build directory and execute cmake giving the path to the alps and to the boost directory: I unzipped the source package and tried using $ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/install/directory /path/to/alps/directory I don't know if I really understood this command line. But when I used it, I the error message "Cmake Error: The source directory does not appear to contain Cmakelists.txt" Thanks, Niraj On Wed, Jul 16, 2014 at 11:29 AM, Matthias Troyer <troyer@phys.ethz.ch> wrote:

Dear alps users, I have been trying to build alps from source on Fedora 20 and I am having issues. I am new to alps and Linux OS itself, so I am spending too much time. I followed the instructions on "Get dependent libraries and tools on Fedora 20" and that was easy to understand and work out. Now I am on "Build ALPS". Either the instructions on "Build ALPS" are not sufficient for a Linux beginner like me or I am not being able to follow them. Please provide me with detailed instructions/guidelines or anything that helps, I will truly appreciate it.
Thanks, Niraj
