pgCC install, Fedora Core 3, dual Opteron

Accelerated Computing HPC Compilers Legacy PGI Compilers

The ./install script didn’t work well on Fedora Core 3 on a dual Opteron. I manually edited localrc as follows:

]$ cat /usr/pgi/linux86-64/5.2/bin/localrc
set LFC=-lg2c;
set LDSO=/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2;
set GCCDIR=/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.2;
set GCCINC=/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.2/include;
set G77DIR=/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.2;
set THROW=__THROW=;

makelocalrc executed by root Tue Jan 25 17:48:23



And this gets pgcc, pgf77, and pgf90 compiling “hello world” but pgCC fails.

Er, nevermind. Just saw the Core 3 patch on the release notes page.

3

PGI releases 5.2-4 and earlier are not compatable with Fedora core 3. As you found out, we do have a patch which corrects these issues. The patch can be found at ftp://ftp.pgroup.com/x86/linux86-patches/fedora3_patch.tar.gz

Thanks,

Hmmm, I’m still getting an error, even after re-installing the compilers. Any ideas?

Hi Leif,

Double check that “limits.h”, “floats.h”, and “bits/types.h” were installed in “/usr/pgi/linux86-64/5.2/include”. You may need to copy them over from the install package. The “limits.h” file contains the definition of “CHAR_BIT” and “SCHAR_MAX”.

I don’t think the header files are the problem; see output of diff below.

cd fedora3_patch/

ls

fedora3_patch.tar.gz limits_32.h makelocalrc_fedora3 types_bits.h
float.h limits_64.h README_FEDORA3 types_sys.h

diff limits_64.h /usr/pgi/linux86-64/5.2/include/limits.h

Hi Leif,

I just reinstalled the 5.2 compilers on our Fedora Core 3 64-bit system, along with the patch, and got your error. However, I noticed that I forgot the change the permissions so that the files were world readable. Once I made this change, everything worked. Perhaps the same thing is happening with your install? What are the permissions on the limits.h and floats.h?

Bingo. That did the trick. Note a new warning message attached below.

Any chance we could get an extension on the evaluation license, now that we have the trial version working? We only have 4 days left now… :-(

Hi Leif,

I asked our sales department to send you a 30 day temporary license. Sorry you had so much trouble. The good news is that the up coming 6.0 release does support Fedora Core 3.

Thanks,
Mat
