Install Salome on Windows

This post shows how to install the salome-platform package on Windows. The same method can be applied to install Salome-Meca for Windows package available in our download page. For Code_Aster Windows standalone package installation, follow this post.

Install Salome for windows

Download Salome for windows from the official salome-platform download page.

Execute the downloaded file. It will self-extract in a SALOME-x.y.z-WIN64 directory.

Test your Salome installation

Go into the extracted directory and into the “WORK” directory. Then execute “run_salome.bat”.

A cmd window will appear and set up things since Salome is running for the first time, be patient … Then another cmd window will effectively launch Salome.

Finally a graphical environment should appear 🙂

Two line and in the and I have a informations: “Error during Salome launch” Do You have some advices ? Sorry but I’m a engineer not a programist. It is my first step with Salome and Code_aster.

Hi,
I love open source programs, therefore thank you for your work. I am very eager to use code_aster and Salome-Meca, I followed the tutorial, installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x64) and Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package (x64), extracted files. However when I run run_salome.bat, the Salome-Meca started to load when it gets to 100 % I got an error:
C++ container is not found.

I just can not come around that, please help.

Hello,
There are some known issues and workarounds in the FAQ? I suggest you to read it and come back here if the problem persist

Dear mr. Maximilien,
thank you a lot. Just when I was writing a response, saying that I have check all the FAQ; no special signs ect., I remembered that while there were none in path I had one in computer name. I changed computer name, and magic happened, Salome is running =)

Thank you again.

Thanks, I updated the FAQ : this information may help other users

Hello I have installed salome meca 2018 64bit on my PC (that runs windows 8.1) as indicated in the instructions above, but I have the following problems:
1)First of all, I’m not able to save a project. When I try to save a project there is a warning that I quote here: “Can’t save file “blabla” possible reasons:
-permission denied
-Unsufficient disk space
-application error try to use another file name
2)Second, when I try to launch the program often SALOME MECA freeze/lock itself when I chose “Geometry” in the menu” and so I have to close the programs.
3)Third, I’m not able to import iges files of bidimensional lines (straight and curved lines). A warning says that there is an error without specify what this error is. I don’t understand. This iges file in Ansys works properly.
I have the same problems with salome meca 2017 64bit

Can anyone help me?, I’m a civil engineer not a programmer. Thank you very much.

Hello,
Thanks for your feedback. I think solutions for problems 1 and 2 are in the FAQ. Please come back if problems persist

How to install Salome Meca 2017 on Windows?

Since the last videos I made which showed how to install a Virtual Linux Machine on your PC and install Salome Meca 2017 on top of it, a new release of Salome-Meca 2017 for Windows went out!

Good news for those who are a bit afraid to step into the linux world but still want to try out Open-source FEA.

How to install Salome Meca 2017 on Windows?

The process of installation on windows is really simple, but I decided to make a video to show you step by step how I did to run the Salome Meca 2017 on my windows 7 PC (and yes… I am still on windows 7…but don’t worry, it is suppose to work on windows 10 as well)

Here’s the video:

The process of installation is actually pretty simple and straightforward:

1. Download the install file from the website code-aster-windows.com
2. Unzip the file
3. Open the terminal, cd into the WORK directory and run the run_salome.bat executable to launch Salome Meca 2017

Still want to install it on Linux?

Check out my previous detailed step-by-step article here:

Need a tutorial to start?

Now, it’s good to install Salome-Meca…but it’s even better if you understand how to use it to simulate something 😉

And that is NOT straightforward at all, you’ll see…but with practice, nothing is impossible! (right?)

Check this article in which I show you how to model and simulate a simple plate:

I hope you enjoy those articles!

If you have something to ask or to say, please leave a comment here, I try to answer every comment

Also if you have ideas about tutorials you would like to see for example, please propose them in the comments as well. It is always useful to know what kind of model you are interested to simulate and it gives me ideas 😉

Code_Aster for Windows

Code_Aster binary versions for Windows 64-bit, FEM is finally open, free AND easy

Salome-Meca 2018 for Windows

Salome-Meca 2018 for Windows is available for download. This version includes AsterStudy 2018.0 and Code_Aster stable 13.6 and testing 14.2 binaries for Windows.

The interface does not change much since 2017 version and It should be possible to follow series of tutorials already available on the Web.

Note that this version is based on Salome 8.3.0 while Linux version uses Salome 8.5.0, but some products such as MED-3.3.1 have been upgraded in the package to make it compatible with new versions of Code_Aster and AsterStudy. Please read the FAQ and report any issues.

Could not get the binary files. Where to get it?

Whenever I try to edit a command file in text mode, I get an unexpected error. I’ve tried changing my editor preferences to use an external editor for “text stage edition” only to get a “text editor error” message.

Error details (with default editor options) are as follows:

Type: AttributeError
Value: (“‘PyEditor_Editor’ object has no attribute ‘editor’”,)

Traceback:
File “C:\Salome2018\MODULES\ASTERSTUDY\RELEASE\ASTERSTUDY_INSTALL\lib\python2.7\site-packages\asterstudy\gui\astergui.py”, line 865, in edit

Already corrected, you should download the last package

A post on this site (and/or a changelog) indicating updates to the 2018 release were made would have been useful. Thanks for the info.

CAW often crashes during start-up. I can only fix this by rebooting my computer (Windows 7). I’ve attached a screenshot of the crash: https://imgur.com/ZzoDWxu

Any fixes for this?

Hi,
I am getting this error message when trying to mesh a cube (my first attempt at using Salome-Meca apart from running, successfully, forma02a so the installation is, apparently, ok):
“Salome exception: “Can’t load server meshers plugin library”
This happens both with Salome for Windows 8.3.0 and Salome-Meca 2018 for Windows.
Any ideas? Thanks

Hi, maybe firewall or antivirus ? If an issue like this happen also with Salome 8.3.0, you may also get help from Salome forum

Hello,
I often get the following error when switching to Paravis:

ACCESS VIOLATION at address 0x0000000000000000 during ‘READ’ operation

I then need to close the project and when I reopen Paravis I need to manually display again all windows and toolbars.
Except that it’s working pretty well, thanks!

Yes, this happen when Paravis module is activated after AsterStudy module

Thank you. The problem was solved after reinstalling the software (both Salome and Salome-Meca), running run_salome.bat as administrator and creating firewall exception rules for all networks.

I’m trying to run a two stage study. I want to perform the processing in the first stage; and the post processing in the second. The second stage fails to run. The error in the log file is:

_DECOMPRESSION error during decompressing base-stage1

Any ideas? Has anyone successfully run a two stage study (and re-used the first stage in the second)?

Hello,
no, I didn’t succeed either. It works well with the Linux version but not with the Windows one.

Salome LIBBATCH module uses “copy” command on Windows and “cp -r” on Linux to copy input/output files (see CommunicationProtocolSH.cxx line 62) but “copy” on Windows is not able to correctly copy directories, xcopy should be used instead. You can report this to Salome team if you wish

Great work on providing the Salome Meca suite for windows.

I’ve received the error below. It seems to occur during the calculation of results, or writing out of results.

This occurs once my run has a larger number of steps in it. For a smaller number of steps, it is able to successfully complete. I’m guessing I’m running into some sort of memory limit
