[Rivet] Rivet installation -- AFS

[Sercan Sen]

Hi Andy,

Thanks a lot --it works. Please see below a few details for some  
feedback.

It set the PYTHONPATH but complained about libstdc++.so.6.

[lxplus256] ~/scratch0/Rivetlocal $ setenv PYTHONPATH /afs/cern.ch/ 
user/s/ssen/scratch0/Rivetlocal/local/lib64/python2.4/site-packages
[lxplus256] ~/scratch0/Rivetlocal $ echo $PYTHONPATH
/afs/cern.ch/user/s/ssen/scratch0/Rivetlocal/local/lib64/python2.4/ 
site-packages
[lxplus256] ~/scratch0/Rivetlocal $ agile-runmc --help
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/afs/cern.ch/user/s/ssen/scratch0/Rivetlocal/local/bin/agile- 
runmc", line 95, in ?

   File "/afs/cern.ch/user/s/ssen/scratch0/Rivetlocal/local/lib64/

     import _AGILe
ImportError: /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.9' not

[lxplus256] ~/scratch0/Rivetlocal $ rpm -q glibc
glibc-2.5-49.el5_5.2

However, I realized that I forgot to set gcc43 when I login to the new  
terminal.  (This ticket was also helpful to figure out the problem; https://savannah.cern.ch/bugs/?65227)

[lxplus256] ~/scratch0/Rivetlocal $ which gcc
/usr/bin/gcc
export PATH=/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/swig/1.3.40/x86_64-slc5-gcc43- 
opt/bin:$PATH
source /afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/contrib/gcc/4.3/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt/ 
setup.sh
When I set the gcc43 by using above lines which are already written on  
the rivet manual, then I get;

[lxplus256] ~/scratch0/Rivetlocal $ which gcc
/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/contrib/gcc/4.3.2/x86_64-slc5-gcc34-opt/bin/gcc

[lxplus256] ~/scratch0/Rivetlocal $ agile-runmc --beam=pp:14TeV  
Pythia6:423
Generating 10 events
Generator is Pythia6:423
.....
.....

Now it works fine,

Thanks again,
Sercan
