Amber on Seawulf (compilation)

compiling Amber9

Follow the steps in the INSTALL file.

At step 5, edit config.h by change g95 to gfortrain.

The following lib file is not found by the compiler

 /usr/include/X11/extensions/shape.h

I copied the following dir from another machine:

 /usr/include/X11/extensions

and put it in my home dir in:

 ~/usr/include/X11/extensions

I modified the files changing the reported line number:

/nfs/user03/tbalius/amber9/src/leap/src/Xmu/ShapeWidg.c line: 27 
/nfs/user03/tbalius/amber9/src/leap/src/Xraw/Logo.c     line: 26
/nfs/user03/tbalius/amber9/src/leap/src/Xraw/Mailbox.c  line: 64 

from:
#include <X11/extensions/shape.h>
to:
#include </nfs/user03/tbalius/usr/include/X11/extensions/shape.h>

instead we should have

 /usr/include/X11/extensions/shape.h  	 x11proto-xext-dev

installed.

I get the following Error:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXext

possible solutions:

cd /usr/lib
ln -s ./libXext.so.6.4.0 ./libXext.so

instead I did the following:

cd ~/user
mkdir lib
ln -s /usr/lib/libXext.so.6.4.0 libXext.so
cd ../
ln -s lib lib64
ln -s lib lib32

Then I changed the following file at the specified line:

 amber9/src/leap/src/leap/Makefile  line:117

from:

../Xmu/libXmu.a $(XLIBS) -lXt -lXext -lSM -lICE -lX11 $(LM) -lpthread

to:

../Xmu/libXmu.a -L/nfs/user03/tbalius/usr/lib/ -lXext -L/usr/lib/ -lXt -lSM -lICE -lX11 -lm -lpthread

MAKE PARALLEL

./configure -mpich2 -p4 gfortran
AMBERHOME is set to /nfs/user03/tbalius/amber9

The MKL_HOME environment variable is not defined.

The configuration file, config.h, was successfully created.

Because of the bold error, we change configure file at line 313:

from:

    loadlib=`$MPI_HOME/bin/mpif90 -show | perl -p -e 's/(-[lL]\S+\s)|\S+\s/$1/g'`

to:

    loadlib=`$MPI_HOME/bin/mpif77 -show | perl -p -e 's/(-[lL]\S+\s)|\S+\s/$1/g'`

compiling Amber10

while making amber10 tools I get the following error:

  ShapeWidg.c:27:34: error: X11/extensions/shape.h: No such file or directory

Like above changed the same files:

Xmu/ShapeWidg.c:#include </nfs/user03/tbalius/usr/include/X11/extensions/shape.h>
Xmu/ShapeWidg.c~:#include <X11/extensions/shape.h>
