I am getting errors when trying to compile Alps from source using gcc 4.8.1 and installed hdf5 through apt-get install libhdf5-serial-dev. I am using Ubuntu server 12.04 LTS. I also have openMPI 1.6.5 installed. Here is the error I am getting.

At first glance I thought it was HDF5 so I installed from source. But I also realized I needed szip again I installed from source. Then I get this error.

CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND.

Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files:

HDF5_sz_LIBRARY_DEBUG (ADVANCED)

linked by target "alps" in directory /root/Cluster/alps-2.1.1-r6176-src-with-boost/alps/src/alps

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

But it still says it can't find szip. I am following the instructions on http://alps.comp-phys.org/mediawiki/index.php/Building_ALPS_from_source

I am using

cmake -D Boost_ROOT_DIR:PATH=./boost -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/storage/alps/2.1.1 ./alps
