Dear Kenneth,
I think the real problem is that the easyconfig is looking for
orca_4_0_1_linux_x86-64_openmpi202.tar.xz
whereas I have
orca_4_0_1_2_linux_x86-64_openmpi202.tar.xz
If this the case, then the list of paths checked is a bit misleading.
How is it confusing? The error message clearly mentions the filename of
the source file EasyBuild is looking for (although the difference is
easy to overlook in this case, of course).
This raises the following question: What is the general approach in this
case where a binary package is needed which may have a patch level
beyond the version number the easyconfig is expecting? Should it have a
separate easyconfig or can there be multiple patch levels within a
single easyconfig?
There's no (easy/clean) way to have multiple patch levels in a single
easyconfig.
If you have a different source, you should use a (slightly) different
easyconfig file.
In this case, I consider this to be a different version entirely...

Kenneth

Dear Loris,
Your configuration looks correct, EasyBuild should be able to find
orca_4_0_1_linux_x86-64_openmpi202.tar.xz if it's located in
/trinity/home/loris/shared/sources/o/ORCA based on your output of "eb
--show-config".
Did you copy the file into the o/ORCA/ subdirectory?
What does "find /trinity/home/loris/shared/sources/o/ORCA -type f" print out?
regards,
Kenneth

Hi,
I have
export EASYBUILD_PREFIX=/trinity/home/loris/shared
and have copied an archive to
/trinity/home/loris/shared/sources/o/ORCA
However the build fails with the follwing error
...
Couldn't find file orca_4_0_1_linux_x86-64_openmpi202.tar.xz anywhere,
and downloading it didn't work either...
Paths attempted (in order):
/trinity/home/loris/shared/software/EasyBuild/3.7.1/lib/python2.7/site-packages/easybuild_easyconfigs-3.7.1-py2.7.egg/easybuild/easyconfigs/o/ORCA/o/ORCA/orca_4")
Shouldn't the 'sources' directory under EASYBUILD_PREFIX be included in
the list of directories to search and why does the path within EasyBuild
contain 'o/ORCA' twice, especially since this directory does not exist?
My config is
[loris@admin ~]$ eb --show-config
