Compilation fails on Archer2 UK system about dbcsr HOT 7 CLOSED

Thanks for the comments. I will try out cmake 3.27.

from dbcsr.

Why the 2.1 version? This problem was fixed in a more recent release...

from dbcsr.

Thanks a lot for your reply.

Archer2's cmake version is 3.20.4, which is below the required 3.22 in the recent releases.

Are there fixes I can do so that I can install 2.1 with an older version of cmake?

from dbcsr.

Well, frankly speaking, I don't remember, 2.1 is > 3 years old...
I would suggest to update cmake on your local directory, e.g.

CMAKE_VERSION=3.25.1
wget https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/releases/download/v${CMAKE_VERSION}/cmake-${CMAKE_VERSION}-Linux-x86_64.sh
mkdir -p cmake_install
sh cmake-${CMAKE_VERSION}-Linux-x86_64.sh --prefix=$PWD/cmake_install --skip-license
rm -f cmake-${CMAKE_VERSION}-Linux-x86_64.sh
export PATH=$PWD/cmake_install/bin:$PATH

from dbcsr.

As member of the ARCHER2 support team, I might suggest that you could very reasonably request a more recent version of cmake be centrally installed on ARCHER2 by contacting the service desk ([email protected]) - cmake 3.21.3 is the most recent version available as a centrally installed module.

Meanwhile, you could use a (centrally unsupported) install of cmake 3.27.7 located at:

/home/z19/shared/cmake/3.27.7

from dbcsr.

I have installed the latest DBCSR using a local cmake-3.28. Thanks a lot!

from dbcsr.

You are welcome!
