Hello,
I want to use Cfd or CfdOf to run a couple of simulations of flow in a pipe. But I am struggling with the installation of the plugin. I am running Freecad as the AppImage version on Xubuntu:
OS: Ubuntu 19.04 (XFCE/xubuntu)
Word size of OS: 64-bit
Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit
Version: 0.19.22960 (Git) AppImage
Build type: Release
Branch: master
Hash: c5a4b01d2e4218bcc0eb6650337650a6c65ef0e4
Python version: 3.8.6
Qt version: 5.12.5
Coin version: 4.0.0
OCC version: 7.4.0
Locale: German/Germany (de_DE)
Ubuntu:
LSB Version: core-10.2019031300ubuntu1-noarch:printing-10.2019031300ubuntu1-noarch:security-10.2019031300ubuntu1-noarch
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 19.04
Release: 19.04
Codename: disco
I followed the steps of the Cfdof manual:
- Downloaded the Appimage
- Installed the Plot workbench
- Installed Cfod
When I do the dependency check, this the output:

Gmsh is installed via the package manager and I can also start the GUI of the Programm
user@host:~$ gmsh --version
4.7.1
I installed hisa and cfmesh from the properties window of the cfdof window. Further I installed PyFoam (with Pip3), python3-matplotlib and paraview.
Openfoam install directory: /home/user/OpenFOAM/user-7
ParaView executable path: /usr/bin
Default output directory: /tmp
How can I fix the “gmsh is not installed” error?
Thanks for your help!
