[BUG/ISSUE] Make install issue with 13.0.0 #585

Closed eamarais closed 3 years ago

eamarais commented 3 years ago

Describe the bug:

I get a "make: *** No rule to make target `install'. Stop." error when I enter "make install" at the command line to build the model version 13.0.0. This is Step 7 on this page: http://wiki.seas.harvard.edu/geos-chem/index.php/Compiling_with_CMake. In the Makefile there doesn't seem to be a rule to "make install". There are no errors in my build and compile steps before this step when I follow the instructions on the wiki page.

I am using GC Classic 2x2.5 with 47 levels full chemistry troposphere + stratosphere coupled to the RRTMG. I'm using compiler gfortran 9.2.0 and cmake version 3.19.1 obtained with spack, running the model on the UCL servers (computational cluster), using the model out-the-box (i.e. I haven't made any changes to the code).

Expected behavior:

I expect this to generate a geos executable that should be copied to the run directory, though I've only just started using 13.0.0 after using 12.9.3.

Actual behavior:

I get the error message "make: ** No rule to make target `install'. Stop.". This suggests there isn't a rule in the Makefile to build "geos"

I'm not sure what would be most helpful for me to include with this issue. I've attached the Makefile from the ./build/ subdirectory in my run directory. Makefile.zip

Adding @rgryan92 to this thread, a postdoc working in my group who is also trying to address this issue to get 13.0.0 compiled and running on the UCL servers.

Hi @eamarais. I believe the issue is that you need to configure your CMake build with the -DRUNDIR option to tell CMake where it should copy the executable. I've updated the documentation on our Compiling with CMake page to reflect this. You should be able to fix the error by doing:

cd build
cmake . -DRUNDIR=/path/to/rundir/
make -j
make install

Thanks @msulprizio. That addressed the error.

Thanks @eamarais and @msulprizio. We can close out this issue now.

Look for the official announcement of the GEOS-Chem 13.0.0 release candidates shortly!
