Usually /tmp is writable for any user. It looks like this is not a case in your system.

<div dir="ltr"><font face="Tahoma" size="2" color="#000000">Oh, I did installation on supercomputer before. Because you are not root user, in the step "./configure", maybe you should use "./configure --prefix=/home/yourname/..." to change the default installation
directory.<br>
<br>
Just my two cents. Hope it helps.<br>

Subject: [gmx-users] gromacs installation<br>
<br>
Dear all:<br>
<br>
I was wondering did any one try to install the gromacs 4.5.X in your own account of supercomputer cluster? I tried to do this, and I had some error messages showed up.<br>
<br>
First, for fftw installation, I did<br>
<br>
./configure --enable-threads --enable-float --prefix=/home/chunxia/fftw<br>
make<br>
make install<br>
<br>
everything is fine.<br>
<br>
and then I went to the gromacs directory,<br>
<br>
export CPPFLAGS="-I/home/chunxia/fftw/include"<br>
export LDFLAGS="-L/home/joe/chunxia/lib"<br>
./configure<br>
make<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
In the "make" step, it showed the error message<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
"autom4te:can not create /tmp/am4t6630.19723:permission denied" at /usr/bin/autom4te line 942<br>
<br>
make:*** [configure] Error 1"<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
How can I solve this problem? Many thanks.<br>
