good day

i am new to OpenMC and i want to set it up on windows 7 or 8, i am unable to get it done. can anyone please take some time and help me out with it?

on windows 8.1 i have installed cmake, gfortran, cygwin… from cygwin terminal when i type make in openmc root folder, it gives me error that CmakeLists.txt not found in C:\openmc-develop\src\xml\fox

so i copied the txt file from root of openmc folder to above location, now i get this error

CMake error at src/xml/fox/CMakeLists.txt:198
CMake error at src/xml/fox/CMakeLists.txt:206
CMake error at src/xml/fox/CMakeLists.txt:207

Hi Umair,

Do you have git installed in your cygwin installation? FoX is a ‘submodule’ that is used by OpenMC, and should automatically be downloaded when you run make, but it requires git. Also, what version of Ubuntu did you try with virtual box?

Thanks,
Paul

thank you, i missed installing git. openmc is now configured in windows 8.1. i will now move on to next step, testing etc.

for ubuntu i tried 32 bit as well as 64 bit. got same error on both.

ubuntu-15.04-desktop-i386

ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-amd64
