[Flash-X-users] Getting Flash-X to work

Wed Aug 28 23:07:22 CDT 2024

Hi Peter,

1. Less of a Flash-X suggestion as much as personal life philosophy: yes
sometimes the best path forward is a fresh (re)start. Along that vein, I've
started the process of typing up a list of steps I need(ed) to take to "Get
Flash-X to work" on my ubuntu virtual private server (which is definitely
more of a pain since no packages are provided for me, but on the plus side
I have full control over everything). I'm currently building lapack. (Will
finish after I go to sleep likely.)

2. I don't know that you have to start over. Kiya mentioned two potentially
helpful suggestions

i. Try changing " thornadoOrder=ORDER_1" in your setup line to a different
value
ii. In your object directory, type "ls -l *.F90 > Flash-X-files.txt" and
share that file with us. Then we can see if you the setup line correctly
placed the files you need in the object directory, or if some are missing.

Best wishes,
--------
Ryan
