Hi everyone,
I have some problem installing nonmem on a PC with Linux (redhat 7.2).
Please let me know if anyone can help.
I basically use setup script using g77 -O -ff99 options as suggested by
other Linux users. The problem does not appear to be discussed in the users
group before.
After installation, I tried CONTROL3, CONTROL5 and CONTROL7. There is an
error msg at the end of the run- 'Segmentation fault', the nonmem run stop
after 0 iteration as indicated in the output file.
I found 2 error warnings only in /nm/emsgs.txt. I was able to fix one
error, but not the other error- [Reference to unimplemented intrinsic
'SCALE' (assumed EXTERNAL)]. The SCALE.f seems to compiled with no problem.
I tried to add SCALE.o in nonmem.exe compiling step. It made no difference.
There seems to be some bugs in my Linux system. I tried to download all the
update from redhat. But, it also made no difference.
Any tip you might have would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Sam Liao, Ph.D.

nonmem installation on Linux

Hi Sam- If using the MS-DOS formated disks when installing NONMEM, the
text files that make up the Fortran source code use have a different
end-of-line format than Linux/UNIX is expecting. This isn't usually a
problem when compiling the code, but can be when using the control files
upon execution of NONMEM. The solution is to pass the text files through
the Linux/UNIX formating program dos2unix (use: dos2unix filename). This
will put the correct end-of-line formating in the file and should solve
your problem. BTW, unix2dos does just the opposite--converts Linux/UNIX
style text formating into MS-DOS style formating. --Larry

Hi Larry:
Thanks, the unix conversion was done prior to the installation. If this
problem is only unique to my Linux system, I may need to install a debugger
to find the bug.
