Hi,
I have this error when I start the installation of the code openmc in my mac:

Make Error at CMakeLists.txt:74 (message):

Could not find HDF5

– Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

See also “/Users/otman/Nuclear/openmc/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log”.

You have here a script that helps you to install HDF5:

#!/bin/bash

export FC=gfortran-4.9

wget ftp://ftp.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/current/src/hdf5-*.tar.gz

tar -xzvf hdf5-*.tar.gz

cd hdf5-*; ./configure --prefix=/opt/hdf5 --enable-fortran --enable-fortran2003

make

sudo make install

It will be installed in /opt/hdf5. Before compiling OpenMC you need to export this directory to environment variables:

export HDF5_ROOT=/opt/hdf5

Hi Otman,

Did it eventually work on your mac? I still have the same problem even after trying the script given by Tarek.
