ypp and yambo build failure during yambo compilation

[Jingjing Yu]

Dear developers,

I am a new beginner to learn how to use yambo to do the calculation.
I met one problem in the compilation process concerning the ypp and yambo linking failed.
The compiler error message is shown below:
yambo linking failed. Check logs/compile_yambo.log
make[1]: *** [config/mk/global/actions/compile_yambo.mk:41: yambo] Error 1

The version of yambo I used is yambo-5.1.0. And the details of compilation is shown below:
" export CC=gcc
export FC=gfortran
export F77=gfortran

export MPICC=mpicc

I don't know how to fix it. And I checked forum but I didn't find the solution. Could you please help me to check it?

Thank you very much!

Dear Jingjing,

can you please post the logs/compile_ypp.log file?

Best,
Daniele

Dear Daniele,

Thank you for your reply. The logs file has been attached.

Best regards,

Dear Jingjing,

it seems there are problem in finding the iotk libraries, I suggest you the following:

1) make clean_all (or distclean)
2) reconfigure the code removing from your script the line: --with-iotk-path="$HOME/software/qe-7.0-ReleasePack/qe-7.0/S3DE/iotk" " (note you have a double "), anyway I suggest to remove it completely
3) make core

Best,
Daniele

Dear Daniele,

Really appreciate for your help! I tried your method and now the compilation is successful.

Thank you very much!

Best regards,
