Boost 1.76 with iccifort-2020.4.304 failing #695

Closed jshelly closed 3 years ago

jshelly commented 3 years ago

We are getting an error message from b2 after copying the Boost-1.74.0-iccifort-2020.4.304.eb to Boost-1.76.0-iccifort-2020.4.304.eb, removed the patch and updated Boost version and checksum. RedHat 8.3 (kernel 4.18.0-240.15.1.el8_3, glibc 2.28-127, x86_64)

See log file attached:

easybuild-Boost-1.76.0-20210423.130833.qCJbL.log.gz

Can you please also attach the project-config.jam and user-config.jam files (if present) from the failed build folder?

Also adding --debug-configuration -d+2 to installopts in the EC might provide some more insight.

Flamefire commented 3 years ago

It seems we need to explicitely put in the path to the intel compilers or B2 might find a system compiler first: https://github.com/boostorg/build/blob/dca10cf20759b0d194f8305356bf155cc5632c0e/src/tools/intel-linux.jam#L100

I.e. it searches (some of) those paths first: https://github.com/boostorg/build/blob/dca10cf20759b0d194f8305356bf155cc5632c0e/src/tools/intel-linux.jam#L55-L74

Here's the project-config.jam file. I added the txt suffix, because it would not allow the jam suffix. That is the only *config.jam file I found in the build directory.

project-config.jam.txt

This is a real bug in the new version which I reported as https://github.com/bfgroup/b2/issues/23

Working on an EasyBlock change

This is unrelated to the issue stopping the build, but from the project-config.jam

path-constant ICU_PATH : /usr ;

This suggests that we should add ICU as a dependency.

Flamefire commented 3 years ago

Certainly correct.

boegel commented 3 years ago

@branfosj Can you open an issue on the ICU aspect for follow-up?

@branfosj Can you open an issue on the ICU aspect for follow-up?

I've run some tests on Boost now and I've not been able to reproduce the issue.

Flamefire commented 3 years ago

This likely means that you don't have ICU installed on that node. B2 has some auto-detection there. Is that the case?

branfosj commented 3 years ago

I've filed https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-easyconfigs/issues/12959 for us to check and decide on how to proceed.
