Looks more like a python/pip problem than a PETSc one. Whatever python/pip you're using appears to require root access, hence the "[Errno 13] Permission denied: " error message at the end.

You probably need to use a local version of python/pip on your cluster. What I have done in the past is load the python module provided by the cluster, then run python get-pip.py to install a local version of pip.

Hi,

The install script keeps failing for me whenever it tries to build PETSc, what should I do to fix this?
Thanks
Will
