[Ipopt] ipopt make test fails: missing MA27

[Adrian Tica]

Hi,
 
Have you tried to compile with MUMPS?
 
For the MA27 solver, try to download the source from the Harwell Subroutine Library (HSL) Archive
[see http://www.coin-or.org/Ipopt/documentation/node16.html ] and recompile.
 
 
Best regards,
Adrian

Dear,

I'm having some issues with the installation of Ipopt. I have followed
the installation guide
(http://www.coin-or.org/Ipopt/documentation/node22.html) up to the 
point where I have to run 'make test'. This fails with the following
error:

=================================
Running unitTests...

Testing AMPL Solver Executable... 
    no AMPL solver executable found, skipping test...
Testing C++ Example...

 ---- 8< ---- Start of test program output ---- 8< ----
Exception of type: OPTION_INVALID in file 
"../../../../Ipopt/src/Algorithm/IpAlgBuilder.cpp" at line 297:
 Exception message: Selected linear solver MA27 not available.
Tried to obtain MA27 from shared library "libhsl.so", but the 
following error occured:
libhsl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
==================================

First I have downloaded ipopt from svn: 
svn co https://projects.coin-or.org/svn/Ipopt/stable/3.9 CoinIpop

Next I have have downloaded the 3th party packages, including the following package containing MA27: coinhsl v2012.12.21. The contents of the latter package have been placed (according
to the instructions) in: /opt/CoinIpopt/ThirdParty/HSL/coinhsl 
This folder contains the following files:

==========================================================

Next I created the folder /opt/CoinIpopt/build. Inside the folder
build, I ran "../configure", "./make", "./make test". The result is
the above error. Attached to this e-mail you can find the config.log 
file which is located in the /opt/CoinIpopt/build folder.

I thought that the problem was that the files inside
/opt/CoinIpopt/ThirdParty/HSL/coinhsl were not compiled for some 
reason. So I went to this folder and also ran "../configure",
"./make", "./make install". The result is that I now have the
following files inside /usr/local/lib: 
libcoinhsl.a   libcoinhsl.so    libcoinhsl.so.0.0.0
libcoinhsl.la  libcoinhsl.so.0

I made sure that the directory /usr/local/lib was set in the variable 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Any suggestions what I did wrong? Feel free to ask if you need more information.

br,

Joris
