Thanks Maarten,

How would I go about linking -lboost_system and -lboost_thread? I'm sorry, I am just starting out with Linux. I should say that I am using Ubuntu 14.04. Thanks in advance for any and all help you can provide.

All the best,
Blair Climenhaga

Hello everyone,

I have been attempting to install OpenFOAM however the boost library has been giving me trouble, most recently reading out these error during OpenFOAM installation.

undefined reference to `boost::system::generic_category()'

You need to link with -lboost_system (or equivalent for whatever name your platform uses)​. Most libraries in boost are header only, but that is not true for everything. Boost system is one of the libraries that needs a compiled library.

 
undefined reference to `boost::detail::set_tss_data(void const*, boost::shared_ptr<boost::detail::tss_cleanup_function>, void*, bool)'
undefined reference to `boost::detail::get_tss_data(void const*)'


Similar problem, link with -lboost_thread​
