Installation of Composer XE 2011 on Linux

I have a customer/developer who is installing Intel Composer XE 2011 for Linux on a Red Hat server, he states the the Fortran Compiler does not install only the C++ compiler installs.

Is is possible that when they download the software they have to choose one or the other compiler for the initial download and then go download the other compiler? If you note below there's no attempt to install the Fortran compiler. I tested downloading an evaluation copy of Composer where you have to choose either C++ compiler or Fortran compiler before the download, but then you have the ability to download the other compiler later on.

Thanks in advance....Dave Armstrong LifeBoat Distribution

Hi Dave,

Well that is odd - if the C++ compiler installs, so should the Fortran compiler. They have the same prerequisites, and the Fortran compiler has less components.

You are right, the compilers are downloaded separately. Did he have a corrupted download? He should try to download again.

Next, make sure he has the same version 12.0 of Fortran as C++. Make sure he isn't using an older 11.x or 10.1 Fortran.

Next, point him to this online doc with help in installation on Linux:

http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-compilers-linux-installation-help/

If all this fails, have him capture the screen for the failure.

Doesn't the Fortran installation have to be started up separately? I don't know if any of the combined C and Fortran packages have a script to install both. The most often used packages have separate tar files for C++ and Fortran; although the current install scripts are aware of what was installed from the other, it's still a separate unpack and install script.

Ron,

Thank you for confirming the separate downloads, I had the customer download the Fortran file: l_ccompxe_2011.4.191.tgz and they will install it.

Thanks for responding, I'll consider the issue closed and will forward off that link to them.

Thanks again...Dave
