make: *** No rule to make target install. Stop.

jmarlhens commented 1 year ago

Dear oxDNA Team,

I am currently facing an issue with the installation process of the oxDNA package. I have followed the provided instructions and successfully compiled the code using make -j4. However, when I attempt to run make install, I receive the following error message:

make: *** No rule to make targetinstall'. Stop.`

Consequently, I am unable to proceed with the installation of the oxDNA package.

Here is some information about my environment:

Operating System: macOS 13.1 (22C65)
CMake Version: cmake version 3.25.2
Compiler: Apple clang version 14.0.0 (clang-1400.0.29.202)
Python Version: Python 3.9.15

I have tried searching for possible solutions, but I have been unable to find a way for this issue. I would appreciate any help, or I would like to know if it is a common issue.

Thank you for your time and support.

Best regards, Jérémie Marlhens

Hi Jérémie,

make install is only for the Python control (oxpy) and analysis (oat) code. If you intend to install those, you need to include -DPython=1 in your cmake invocation

Yes I didn’t see that point, It works now, thank you very much!

Best, Jérémie
