<p>Comment (by Roland Haas):</p>
<p>Hello Suo-Ning Wang,</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>If the system offers “environment modules” (<code>module list</code> / <code>module load</code>) then you can try and see if there is a <code>cmake</code> module available (or, if the system is small enough, the sysadmin may be willing to install a copy of cmake).</p>
<p>If that is not possible then you have to compile your own <code>cmake</code>. 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`): </p>
<div class="codehilite"><pre><span></span><code><span>./GetComponents --no-update https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/manifest/raw/a3d645186fc84f605ede2103a6f56ae99fc8c939/einsteintoolkit.th</span>
</code></pre></div>
<p>and after that remove your partially compiled code</p>
<div class="codehilite"><pre><span></span><code><span>rm -rf Cactus/configs/sim</span>
</code></pre></div>
<p>then compile again using <code>sim build</code> as shown in the tutorial.</p>
