Comment (by Roland Haas):

Hello Suo-Ning Wang,

hmm, actually looking at the paths in your error message, this is not a personal Ubuntu based laptop, is it? Instead this looks like some share university system where you yourself cannot install cmake.

If the system offers “environment modules” \(`module list` / `module load`\) then you can try and see if there is a `cmake` module available \(or, if the system is small enough, the sysadmin may be willing to install a copy of cmake\).

If that is not possible then you have to compile your own `cmake`. The easiest way is actually using the EinsteinToolkit where there is a “branch” that provides cmake. To do so please run \(in the same directory where you first ran \`GetComponents\`\):  

```
./GetComponents --no-update https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/manifest/raw/a3d645186fc84f605ede2103a6f56ae99fc8c939/einsteintoolkit.th
```

and after that remove your partially compiled code

```
rm -rf Cactus/configs/sim
```

then compile again using `sim build` as shown in the tutorial.
