< PyMinuit, how to install and use it | Index | Notes on musrfit usage >
Installing on XPS Ubuntu 16.06 according to http://lmu.web.psi.ch/musrfit/user/html/setup-standard.html#gnu-linux-requirements
Installed root with QT5
Nexus not installed
$Home/App is $Home/git
git checkout -b v6-14-04 v6-14-04
cmake --build ./ --clean-first -- j4
sudo make install
# compiled for 4 cores
# for musrfit cmake >3.6 is needed, if older:
- sudo apt purge cmake, download binary from sudo cp -r man /usr/share/ and export to /tmp
- move to /tmp/cmake... directory and sudo cp -r bin /usr/, sudo cp -r share /usr/, sudo cp -r doc /usr/share/, sudo cp -r man /usr/share/
cd ~/git
git clone https://gitlab.psi.ch/nemu/musrfit.git
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$ROOTSYS
cmake --build ./ --clean-first -- -j4
sudo make install
sudo /sbin/ldconfig
-----------
In order not to repeat trivial mistakes! Repeated in 2017 with Ubuntu 14.04 and Root 6
From 14.04
check dependencies in https://root.cern.ch/build-prerequisites#ubuntu by running
dpkg -l | grep xxx # with xxx each of the dependency packages listed for ubuntu
sudo apt-get install xxx# for those that give a blank reply line
14.04 has only a 2.8 cmake, too old (if not needed in latest LTS, skip to get the root source), otherwise
install most recent Cmake: as root in /usr/local type
git clone https://github.com/Kitware/CMake.git
./configure
make
make install
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/cmake cmake /usr/local/bin/cmake 1 --force # to force upgrading from ubuntu default
cmake --version# to check
get the root source: as root in /usr/local (presently in /usr/local/gitroot)
git clone http://root.cern.ch/git/root.git
follow https://root.cern.ch/building-root#quick-start
mkdir /usr/local/root
cmake /usr/local/root
now edit /usr/local/root/CMakeCache.txt and set minuit2:BOOL=ON, qt:BOOL=ON xml:BOOL=ON (VERY IMPORTANT, they are OFF by default)
cmake --build .
root # to try it out (.q to quit!)
cmake --build . --target install
Install musrfit: as root, from /usr/local
git clone https://bitbucket.org/muonspin/musrfit.git# creates a musrfit directory in /usr/local
check dependencies (see above under cmake)
check that you have autogen, otherwise
apt-get install autogen
then
cd /usr/local/musrfit/
sh autogen.sh
./configure
check that /usr/local/lib is in echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH, otherwise\\
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
make
make istall
/sbin/ldconfig
as normal user set environment variables, adding to the bottom of ~/.bashrc
export MUSRFITPATH=/usr/local/bin
and finally copying a file musrfit_startup.xml to /usr/local/bin/
old 10.04 instructions
apt-get install libboost-dev gsl-bin libgsl0-dev fftw3 fftw3-dev libxml2 libxml2-dev libqt3-mt libqt3-mt-dev qt4-dev-tools
download latest root tarball and install in /usr/local/root
Present installation is non standard, done from a sudo -i command line (as root)
Should have been done with
sudo ./configure --enable-minuit2 --enable-mathmore --enable-xml --prefix=/usr/local
sudo make
sudo make install
If I try that now it tells me
ROOTSYS not set, set it to a destination directory
make: *** [install] Error 1
even if echo $ROOTSYS (as well as sudo echo $ROOTSYS replies /usr/local/root
Should be OK though, since invoking root from a user terminal works (and new TBrowser(); too, .q to quit)
now download [[http://savannah.psi.ch/viewcvs/trunk/analysis/musrfit.tar.gz?root=nemu%2Flem&view=tar| musrfit.tar.gz] and unpack it
sudo sh autogen.sh
sudo ./configure --enable-BMWlibs --with-rootsys=/usr/local/root
I did not try nexus, which is installed by synaptic, because it complains that it does not find hdf4 and I do not wish to loose time on that now. (Nexus is alien converted)
sudo make
sudo make install
