Building Elmer in Elmer VM fails 3 tests

I have been trying to build and install ElmerFEM in the Ubuntu 22.04 VM that is provided by ElmerFEM. I have only tried compiling with the provided build script. The output error states

Code: Select all

The following tests FAILED:

	285 - FixTangentVelo (Failed)

	326 - IntegralConstraintFlow (Failed)

	328 - IntegralConstraintPoisson (Failed)

I did try to run with the suggested flags

Code: Select all

--rerun-failed
and

Code: Select all

--output-on-failure
, but I have no idea if I did it properly. I just rerun the build script with those options. Trying to use

Code: Select all

make install
with those options failed because the options were not recognized.

I have a log file, but I don't know if there is a way to post it, and the file contains a quantity of characters greater than the forum allowance.

Hi,

This is not serious. Norms may change for some tests under development. >99% of your tests passed.

That is a successful build. If you are concerned about those three tests you can go look at them individually. But you may not even use FixTangentVelo IntegralConstraintFlow , IntegralConstraintPoisson in your simulations.

Thank you! That is good to know. To be very frank, I've never done FEA. I supposedly did, but that was not a good class for me. We will see how this goes.

Elmer is a pretty top notch FEA tool, but being open source, the bulk of learning is on the user.
