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
Hi,
You need to tell us more about where you get stuck if you want to receive help.

Hi Dr. Troyer, I am stuck at the "Build ALPS section". 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,

Did you replace the paths with the actual paths on your system?

Hi Dr. Troyer, I was able to fix the issues I previously had. Now when I am trying to build alps, I am getting the message "...fatal error: sys/systeminfo.h: No such file or directory." I have no idea what that file is about - I searched everywhere in my system but was not able to find it. Would you be able to help me out ?

Please try a clean configure and build, and report exactly what you have done. This now looks like a messed up configuration, as ALPS checks at configure time whether sys/systeminfo.h exists.

In step 2 you have to also specify the absolute path to the ALPS source tree, in addition to the path to Boost

Dear Niraj,
Installing software in linux machines is a standard procedure. It might be useful for you to have a look to this link:
http://www.ee.surrey.ac.uk/Teaching/Unix/unix7.html
No, you do not have to reinstall the dependences, assuming you have installed them correctly the first time.
A clean configure/installation requires that you delete the ALPS source directory, and start the installation process from the beginning.
Regards,
German

Dear Niraj,
Installing software in linux machines is a standard procedure. It might be useful for you to have a look to this link:
http://www.ee.surrey.ac.uk/Teaching/Unix/unix7.html
No, you do not have to reinstall the dependences, assuming you have installed them correctly the first time.
A clean configure/installation requires that you delete the ALPS source directory, and start the installation process from the beginning.
Regards,
German

Hi Dr. Troyer,
For the clean configuration/installation, do I need to remove dependent libraries (e.g, Python, CMake, etc.) and reinstall them ?

Please try a clean configure and build, and report exactly what you have done. This now looks like a messed up configuration, as ALPS checks at configure time whether sys/systeminfo.h exists.

Hi Dr. Troyer,
I was able to fix the issues I previously had. Now when I am trying to build alps, I am getting the message "...fatal error: sys/systeminfo.h: No such file or directory." I have no idea what that file is about - I searched everywhere in my system but was not able to find it. Would you be able to help me out ?

Did you replace the paths with the actual paths on your system?

Hi Dr. Troyer,
I am stuck at the "Build ALPS section". 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 (I was wondering if downloading 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

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 >
