Dear Qiwei,

Can you tell us which 7 tests failed and what error messages you got?

Thanks!

Dear Lawrence, 

Many thanks for your quick response and support! 

I have followed your suggestions with the command 

"conda activate"

"python firedrake-install --package-branch firedrake wence/fix/supermesh-mpi-message"

The installment seems to work now, and the associated log file is attached as well.

Then I run 

"make alltest"

but it said that

"

 /home/duyuan/temp5/firedrake/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pymbolic/parser.py:284: DeprecationWarning: Usage of 'if' as an identifier is deprecated due to introduction of python style 'if-else' expressions.
    left_exp = self.parse_terminal(pstate)

"

Since there are still 7 failed and 664088 warnings, any suggestions please?

Thanks a lot & Best Regards,

Qiwei

OK, this suggests that the python3 you are using in this setup was not built with SSL support. How did you obtain Python? Through the package manager, or did you compile it yourself?

I think this is just an oversight on our part. Can you test a fix for me please?

Try running

firedrake-install --package-branch firedrake wence/fix/supermesh-mpi-message
