GROMACS version:2025.3 GROMACS modification: No When I wanna install GROMACS 2025.3 + Plumed +GPU + MPI, I found some errors: make[2]: \*\*\* [src/external/googletest/googlemock/CMakeFiles/gmock.dir/build.make:79: src/external/googletest/googlemock/CMakeFiles/gmock.dir/src/gmock-all.cc.o] Error 1 make[1]: \*\*\* [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:5347: src/external/googletest/googlemock/CMakeFiles/gmock.dir/all] Error 2 It seems that the googletest can not be done? Why and how to solve these? ################## My cmake code: cmake .. -DCMAKE\_INSTALL\_PREFIX=/public/home/202210191827/GROMACS/GMX202503 -DCMAKE\_PREFIX\_PATH=/public/home/202210191827/GROMACS/FFTW3310 -DCMAKE\_PREFIX\_PATH=/public/home/202210191827/GROMACS/LIBTORCH -DGMX\_USE\_PLUMED=ON -DGMX\_NNPOT=TORCH -DGMX\_MPI=ON -DGMX\_GPU=CUDA -DCMAKE\_CUDA\_ARCHITECTURES=80 -DPython\_EXECUTABLE=$(which python) ---

Hi, > [@Junhao](#): > > make[2]: \*\*\* [src/external/googletest/googlemock/CMakeFiles/gmock.dir/build.make:79: src/external/googletest/googlemock/CMakeFiles/gmock.dir/src/gmock-all.cc.o] Error 1 > make[1]: \*\*\* [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:5347: src/external/googletest/googlemock/CMakeFiles/gmock.dir/all] Error 2 The actual error message is somewhere higher up in the output. What you shared only says that _something_ went wrong when building GoogleTest. It could be caused by almost anything, including, e.g., you running out of disk space. Please share the _full_ error message; preferably, the complete `cmake` log right from the start, since it also prints compiler versions and such. Also: You are specifying `CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH` twice. That does not work (only the last flag will be used); you need to use [semicolon-separated list](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/variable/CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.html) (with single quotes around to keep the shell happy): `-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH='/public/home/202210191827/GROMACS/FFTW3310;/public/home/202210191827/GROMACS/LIBTORCH'` ---

Thank you very much! The issues I post previously has been done, and the problem comes from the torch version and the version of some critical system setup. Now I can install the software I want. But there are some new issues that when I run GROMACS with Plumed, some core dumped informations show. I am very sad now… ---- Replied Message ---- > From | [al42and via GROMACS forums](mailto:notifications@bioexcel1.discoursemail.com)[notifications@bioexcel1.discoursemail.com](mailto:notifications@bioexcel1.discoursemail.com) | > > - | - | > Date | 11/24/2025 11:18 | > To | [jhaodai@163.com](mailto:jhaodai@163.com) | > Cc | | > Subject | [GROMACS forums] [User discussions] GROMACS 2025.3 + Plumed +GPU + MPI | > ![](https://dub1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/user_avatar/gromacs.bioexcel.eu/al42and/45/1393_2.png "al42and") | [al42and](https://gromacs.bioexcel.eu/u/al42and) > November 24 | > > - | - | Hi, > ![](https://dub1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/user_avatar/gromacs.bioexcel.eu/junhao/48/3202_2.png)Junhao: > > make[2]: \*\*\* [src/external/googletest/googlemock/CMakeFiles/gmock.dir/build.make:79: src/external/googletest/googlemock/CMakeFiles/gmock.dir/src/gmock-all.cc.o] Error 1 > make[1]: \*\*\* [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:5347: src/external/googletest/googlemock/CMakeFiles/gmock.dir/all] Error 2 The actual error message is somewhere higher up in the output.
