Questions on Quantum Espresso

biubiu

Hi,

I'm new to Computational physics. I was trying to install Quantum Espresso under Cygwin on a PC. Running the Makefile resulted in two error messages, which I don't understand:

"

cd install ; make -f extlibs_makefile libiotk

Anyone can help? Thank you very much!

Have you tried googling for these message? First two hits suggests you are missing some libraries.

It can be some deeper problem, but in my experience whenever there are problems during execution of make googling for error messages points in the right direction.

AlephZero

The missing libraries probably belong to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_Passing_Interface and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_SMTP

so you probably need to install them if you haven't got them already.

Thank you! Borek and AlephZero. It is now installed.
