the failure of the installation of the ifort for Linux

[yixinlucky]

hello! I have two problems in the installation and the configuration of ifort in my fedora 11 system.
The step 6 of the installation presents Missing optional pre-requisite
-- No compatible Java* Runtime Environment (JRE) found
-- operating system type is not supported.
-- system glibc or kernel version not supported or not detectable
that is to say, this system does not appear to have a Java* JRE version 5.0 (also referred to as1.5.0) installed. This may prevent operation of the Intel Debugger GUI. Forfurther details, please refer to the System Requirement section of the productRelease Notes.

Detected operating system is not supported. Supported operating systems for thisrelease include:
- Asianux* 3.0
- Debian* 5.0
- Fedora* 10 (IA-32 and Intel 64 only)
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux* 3, 4, 5
- SGI ProPack* 5 (IA-64 and Intel 64 only)
- SuSE Linux* Enterprise Server* 9, 10, 11
- Turbo Linux* 11
- Ubuntu* 9.04

System glibc or kernel version not supported or not detectable.
Supported glibc/kernel versions:
architecture kernel glibc
IA-32 2.4 2.2.93, 2.3.2
IA-32 2.6 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6
......

I haved installed JRE1.5.0,the latest version of glibc and kernel,but haven't configured the JRE 1.5.0.

So I miss the problems.At last the installation is completed.

The second is that the system does not work when I print "source /opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/059/bin/ia32/ifortvars_ia32.sh"or"~.csh".

and input "which ifort" ,the system shows "/opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/059/bin/ia32/" .While in the installation of abinit ,the system shows that it couldn't fortran.

I want to know if the ignored problems influence the ifort works well and how to configure the ifort and JRE.

Plenty has been written here earlier on these topics. JRE affects only the GUI debugger idb. If you don't have a working g++ active, that will prevent ifort from working.

[Ron_Green]

There is a known bug in the installer for detecting JREs properly. Continue the installation and ignore the message, it will work fine.

There is a fix coming for the installer in the next update compiler, due in the next week or so.

Establishing the Fortran Compiler Environment in fedora 11, I input "source /opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/059/bin/ifortvars.sh ia32" according to the installation guide. But the system does't react. I tried several times ,at last failed.
Could it be said that their versions aren't compitable?
I eager for your help. Thanks a lot for your time.

The source command sets up environment variables ONLY. It does not run the compiler. Try this:

source /opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/059/bin/ifortvars.sh ia32
ifort -V

this should give you the compiler version information. Next, find and read the documentation on getting started:

Thank you very much for your help.

Where can I compile "ifort my_source_file.f03(or f95 0r f90)" ? Which one of ~.f03,f95,and f90should Ichoose? Should I choose ~.f03,right ?
It is the first time to contact Linux and Intel Fortran compiler. Thanks.

[Steven_L_Intel1]

Please use .f90 as the file type for free-form source files. Intel Fortran does not recognize .f95 or .f03 and, in my view, the use of those types is misguided.

[yixinlucky]

Thanks a lot.

I try to do it .

[yixinlucky]

My ifort has been installed and compiled succesfully.

Thanks everybody loyally.
