sysname can't get the right machine type
« on: July 24, 2007, 04:33:21 PM »
I want to install the Turbomole 5.9.1 on one of our lab's cluster,  but the sysname can't  get the right machine type, I just get the error information:

sysname: no computer architecture supported by TURBOMOLE compatible to this
         computer architecture "i786-unknown-linux-gnu" found.
sysname: it seems as if this computer architecture is not supported by
         TURBOMOLE.

I use RedHat Enterprise Linux AS 4 X86_64 version, and have 2 dual core processor on one node. Here is one of the cpu information :

processor       : 3
vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
cpu family      : 15
model           : 4
model name      :                   Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.00GHz

bogomips        : 5570.56

Hi,

sysname has problems assigning the correct system name if you have installed a 32bit Linux on a 64bit CPU, or if it thinks that you have a 32bit CPU but installed a 64bit Linux.

What kind of a Xeon is that? If you have installed 64bit Linux, it should be a EM64T capable CPU, but from the /proc/cpuinfo output it looks like a usual 32bit Xeon machine.

If you are sure that it is a EM64T machine, you can set the system name for sysname yourself:

export TURBOMOLE_SYSNAME=em64t-unknown-linux-gnu

in your .bashrc, or wherever you want. sysname will print out the system name that you have set.

And, please, run the test suite afterwards...

Regards,

Uwe

P.S.: If you are within the first year of free MSU (maintenance, support, updates),
or renewed the MSU, just send your problems to the Turbomole support...
