We confirmed that installing libmesh to a non-system location (i.e. not requiring sudo) worked just fine on this system. This was a bit confusing to me, since on my system "sudo env" shows that the new shell inherits my current PATH, but perhaps some systems' sudo can be configured differently than others... -- John ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Find and fix application performance issues faster with Applications Manager Applications Manager provides deep performance insights into multiple tiers of your business applications.
