[Rivet] Rivet install problem

[Daniel Weyh]

Hi Lovedeep,

although I have trouble with the linux systems at CERN in general, I cannot reproduce the problem.
Just did the following:

As mentioned on the website:
--------------------
wget http://svn.hepforge.org/rivet/bootstrap/rivet-bootstrap
chmod +x rivet-bootstrap
export PATH=/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/swig/1.3.40/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt/bin:$PATH
source /afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/contrib/gcc/4.3/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt/setup.sh
--------------------

Then:
--------------------
[lxplus244] /afs/cern.ch/user/d/dweyh > ./rivet-bootstrap --prefix=$HOME/local
Getting http://www.hepforge.org/archive/rivet/Rivet-1.5.0.tar.gz
Downloading http://www.hepforge.org/archive/rivet/Rivet-1.5.0.tar.gz
LCG area available: using LCG-built packages
Using LCG platform tag = x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt
Configuring in /afs/cern.ch/user/d/dweyh/build/Rivet-1.5.0: ./configure --prefix=/afs/cern.ch/user/d/dweyh/local  --with-lcgtag=x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt --with-hepmc=/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/HepMC/2.06.03/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt --with-boost=/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/Boost/1.44.0_python2.6/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt --with-boost-incpath=/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/Boost/1.44.0_python2.6/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt/include/boost-1_44 --with-fastjet=/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/fastjet/2.4.2/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt --disable-pdfmanual --with-gsl=/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/GSL/1.10/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt --with-gslcblas=/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/GSL/1.10/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt
Building in /afs/cern.ch/user/d/dweyh/build/Rivet-1.5.0: make -j2 && make -j2 install

All done. Now set some variables in your shell by sourcing, for bash shell:
--------------------
E.g. rivet --list-analyses produced some output (although I didn't check on HepMC files or the like...).


Maybe you can check your environmental variables?
My $LD_LIBRARY_PATH is a bit unsorted... (did I mention I'm not really happy?), but here it is and it worked by now:
--------------------
[lxplus244] /afs/cern.ch/user/d/dweyh > echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH 
/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/contrib/gcc/4.4.3/x86_64-slc5-gcc44-opt/lib64:/afs/cern.ch/user/d/dweyh/local/lib:/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/HepMC/2.06.03/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt/lib:/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/fastjet/2.4.2/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt/lib:/afs/cern.ch/user/d/dweyh/local/lib:/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/HepMC/2.06.03/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt/lib:/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/fastjet/2.4.2/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt/lib:/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/contrib/gcc/4.3.2/x86_64-slc5-gcc34-opt/lib64:/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/contrib/mpfr/2.3.1/x86_64-slc5-gcc34-opt/lib:/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/contrib/gmp/4.2.2/x86_64-slc5-gcc34-opt/lib:/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/contrib/gcc/4.4.3/x86_64-slc5-gcc44-opt/lib64
--------------------
Roughly the first half should do it...

Btw. you can try to run my installation (source /afs/cern.ch/user/d/dweyh/rivetenv.[c]sh).

Good luck,
Daniel
