Fail downloading Salome 9.15.0 on Ubuntu 24

Install & build
1

Dear community,
After filling in the form and clicking the download button, Firefox attempts to download the file. After roughly 500 MB, the download stops. I tried several times and the same happens for version 9.14 and 9.13.

Anybody else has the same problem?

Thank you for your help.

Hi!

Same here, actually I’ve ran into multiple problems trying to download different versions. I managed to download the “universal” package (by resuming the download many, many times), but I couldn’t get that one to work in the machine I have available (edit: because I’m running linux on a VM in a macosx laptop and the darn thing has aarch64 cpu and the given binaries are x86_64).

I tried twice today and was able to download SALOME successfully. Could you please check again? If the issue persists, we will escalate it accordingly.

Regards.

Hi.
Nothing at all.
It’s either failing to retrieve the download page “Website cannot be reached” or starting the download but interrupting it after a few MB.

My collague at my department tried the same but the result didn’t change.

Thank you.

Could you please try again and let us know if the issue persists ? If it fails, please share any errors displayed in your browser’s DEBUG console as well as the time you tried to reach the download site. This will help the experts pinpoint exactly what’s going on, since we cannot reproduce the reported issue on our side. Direct download link to the universal binary can be found here.

arm architecture is currently not supported.

@NabilG for info, today i received a mail from code_aster inviting to download the last version, and mentionning the ‘unified’ page for all the soft, just wanted to point that in case of salome it looks like the ‘current’ version is 9.14 instead of the 9.15.

This is the error from the debug console.

I know! I learned it the hard way.

I did end up getting it to run within a docker container emulating amd64 and visualizing through NoVNC as I couldn’t get X11 nor RDP to work right..

You can search for “salome” over this repo to see how it’s set-up (you still need to download the tar.gz manually), this is bundled with other tools for making a CFD Stack (Elmer, OpenFOAM, eof-Library and Paraview).

Edit: if you want a standalone image with only salome, you can find it here, if you clone this, download and rename the tarball for whatever version you wish to run to “salome.tar.gz” and place it in the same folder as the Dockerfile, then run build-salome.sh and run-salome.sh and you should be able to connect through OpenVNC (on any browser window).

PS: I still need to set-up an easier way to share files between the user’s file system and the container’s.

PS2: I haven’t looked into whether this approach could be extended to actually build from the salome source.
