Hi all lammps users,
I tried for installing lammps into my single processor computer. Actually I have no much knowledge about how to install softwares in the Linux machines. So I used pre-built executable package and finally I was able to install. But I got an error when I run a simulation. I believe this error is coming because still this needs some extra packages. Please help me to fix this.
My system info:
Architecture: x86_64
CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit, 64-bit
CPU(s): 8
Core(s) per socket: 4
CPU family: 6
Model name: Intel® Core™ i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz
Pre-build lammps package: (this is what i used for installation)
lammps_openmpi-lates.x86_64.rpm
Then I enabled the repository using the following command.
su -c 'zypper ar -t rpm-md -G -f -c [http://git.icms.temple.edu/rpm/suse/12.3/x86_64](http://git.icms.temple.edu/rpm/suse/12.3/x86_64) lammps-icms'
then this created the repositories in the 'Yast', software management center. then when I activated the packages by clicking on them, it gave me two options saying;
#1. do not install lammps-20140926-8x86-64
#2. break the ``lammps-openmpi-20140926-8x86-64 by ignoring its dependencies.
since I wanted to install, I selected the second option.
The error I found:
when I ran a simulation I got following error.
lmp_g++: error while loading shared libraries: libpng15.so.15: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Please help me to fix this problem or help me to install with different method.
thanks.
Nira.

this doesn't make sense. if you enable the repository, you do not need
to install the "latest" rpm manually. you'll be able install and
update it via yast.
su -c 'zypper ar -t rpm-md -G -f -c

you get this error because you chose to ignore the dependencies. you
have to have yast resolve the dependencies, e.g. to install libpng.
this is usually done by default, since many applications use it. the
only possible explanation is that you enabled the wrong repository
(e.g. the one for 12.3 but you have 13.1).
in any case, please find somebody local with experience in installing
software on opensuse. the errors you are getting are clearly due to
your lack of experience.

Thank you so much Dr. Axel. Your answer helps me a lot…
