Dear Benedikt, Thank you for your reply. Yes, I am not expert in compiling and installing packages. I have attached The information about the compilers, OS in the file Information.txt (which I got after running "cmake …. " command). The Errors appeared after running "make" is attached in the file Make-Error-Details.txt. This time I did not compile as root. I compiled as user. So please see if you find the error and suggest me what should I do. Also, as you said you can provide me a link to a virtualbox image containing a fresh working install of alps and vistrails. I shall try with that too. Thanking you, Dr. Santu Baidya

The lines you showed seem to be consecutive errors of some root error message that is not visible. -j 8 enables parallel building, using 8 threads instead of only 1 for the build process. If your build fails with a simple make it will fail with a make -j 8 too. In fact you should use only "make" since it is simpler to debug.
In general it is a good idea not to compile as root but as a regular user.
If the total error messages are too long for an email, please post them using a service like pastebin. Also please provide information about your OS version, compilers used, etc.
If you are unfamiliar with compiling programs from source I can offer to send you a link to a virtualbox image containing a fresh working install of alps and vistrails.
All the best
Benedikt

I first logged in as root in my pc and then changed directory to /opt/. Then ran the commandcmake -D Boost_ROOT_DIR=/opt/alps-2.2/alps-2.2.b3-r7462-src-with-boost/boost -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/alps-2.2 /opt/alps-2.2/alps-2.2.b3-r7462-src-with-boost/alps It worked fine. After that I ran "make " and got the error as attached in my previous mail. Again I found a website http://linuxtoolkit.blogspot.kr/2011/11/installing-alps-20-from-source-on.ht... where they suggested to use "make -j 8 " instead of simply "make" Unfortunately I again some errors : applications/dmrg/mps/CMakeFiles/mps_models.dir/build.make:86: recipe for target 'applications/dmrg/mps/CMakeFiles/mps_models.dir/framework/dmrg/models/factory/model_factory_nu1.cpp.o' failedmake[2]: *** [applications/dmrg/mps/CMakeFiles/mps_models.dir/framework/dmrg/models/factory/model_factory_nu1.cpp.o] Error 1CMakeFiles/Makefile2:5599: recipe for target 'applications/dmrg/mps/CMakeFiles/mps_models.dir/all' failedmake[1]: *** [applications/dmrg/mps/CMakeFiles/mps_models.dir/all] Error 2 applications/dmft/qmc/CMakeFiles/interaction_expansion_impl.dir/build.make:206: recipe for target 'applications/dmft/qmc/CMakeFiles/interaction_expansion_impl.dir/interaction_expansion/splines.cpp.o' failedmake[2]: *** [applications/dmft/qmc/CMakeFiles/interaction_expansion_impl.dir/interaction_expansion/splines.cpp.o] Error 1CMakeFiles/Makefile2:5987: recipe for target 'applications/dmft/qmc/CMakeFiles/interaction_expansion_impl.dir/all' failed make[1]: *** [applications/dmft/qmc/CMakeFiles/interaction_expansion_impl.dir/all] Error 2 Makefile:160: recipe for target 'all' failedmake: *** [all] Error 2 Please help me to install alps properly in my pc.

If you install the package in the 'opt' directory you have to use 'sudo'. Did you try to write in the terminal : sudo make test, sudo make install etc ...
