Yambo Community Forum

Respected Sir
I am trying to install YAMBO-3.4.1 in HPC as an interface of quantum espresso. So I have installed Quantum espresso-6.2.1 successfully

Next I have tried to install yambo-3.4.1 version and configured successfully with the following command-

./configure --with-iotk='/home/sarkaru/project/sarkaru/QE/qe-6.2.1/S3DE/iotk' --with-p2y=6.2.1
Then for compiling I have used the command ‘make yambo interfaces’
But get the following error

Why this error appeared? Did I miss anything?
Could you please guide me to fix this problem? Here I have attached the config.log.

Dear Barnali,
as you can see in the yambo documentation:
http://www.yambo-code.org/doc/databases/p2y_direct.php

QE >=6.2 requires yambo >= 4.2

Best,
Daniele

Respected Daniele Varsano

Thanks a lot for your quick reply. Now I am trying to install yambo-4.2.1 version along with quantum espresso -6.2 version.
I have used the following command for configure the yambo-4.2.1

./configure --with-iotk-path='/home/sarkaru/project/sarkaru/QE/qe-6.2.1/S3DE/iotk' --with-p2y-version=6.2.1

Then for compiling I have used the command ‘make interfaces’

But get the following error

Dear Barnali,
Have you problems in compiling yambo or just the interfaces?

Try the following steps: and report again together with your config.log and the config/setup file?

Best,
Daniele

Respected Daniele,
As per your suggestion, for yambo installation, I have used the following command-

make clean_all
./configure
make yambo interfaces

But found the following error

With this mail I have attached the config.log.
Please help me to solve this problem.
Thanking you.

Dear Barnali,
the problem is probably due to the fact you are mixing intel and gnu compilers.
Try to do configure by using: Best,
