Here post your question

The PC has GPU Nvidia GTX 1080 graphic card. It has CentOS 7 and I have installed CUDA 11.2 (version). Then started installing Gromacs 2019, by below commands

cd gromacs-2019  
mkdir build  
cd build  
cmake … -DGMX\_CUDA\_TARGET\_SM=“61” -DCMAKE\_INSTALL\_PREFIX=/usr/local/gromacs2019  
make

\*\*Unfortunately, when I give the next command \*\*

> make check

\*\* it is showing the following error ( screenshot attached )\*

But, if give next command **sudo make install** , Gromacs is getting installed…

How to solve the above error? Your suggestions will be of great help to me
