CCL:G: Gaussian on Centos?

Hi Jason,

I did try. Honest, I did, but with no luck (I took a look at the link you sent a few months ago, but again, no dice). If anyone else out there has a good recipe, please let me know! Thanks again for the info.

Be well,

Jason

Hi Daniel,

Both Gaussian and Gaussview will run on CentOS; I've got it working on an Altix XE310 in my lab. A word of warning, though; if you get Gaussview, it will only run on CentOS or Redhat. It doesn't run on Ubuntu, or any other open-source Linux flavor (easily, at least).

ooh! A challenge!  Were it not for the hefty price tag I'd give it a go.  An ubuntu thread that may be helpful:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=634578" target="_blank">http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=634578

In any case, Linux is Linux, so I can't imagine it's completely incompatible with other flavors.  It may be necessary to install additional packages with the proper library versions.

As a side-note, SUSE 10 is listed as a supported platform if an additional package is installed.

All the best,
Jason



Be well,

Jason

Hello colleagues:

Has any one had any experience installing Gaussian for Linux/Red Hat
Enterprise on the Centos OS? The binary compatibility with RedHat
interests us.

Thanks for any responses!
