| | 8 | == Installation instructions and pre-workshop exercises == |
| | 9 | |
| | 10 | === Install on Windows === |
| | 11 | The different program are foreseen to run on !Linux/Mac. If you don't have Linux or Mac, the best solution is to install Linux (I would advice to install Ubuntu) in dual boot and follow the instructions for Linux. |
| | 12 | This video might help you to do so: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2369893842637434537 |
| | 13 | virtual machine are fine, but quite often the library readline is not present on the system. This package is not mandatory but allozs mg5 to have history and nice auto-completions. |
| | 14 | So you might consider to install that library first and the compile python2.6. |
| | 15 | |
| | 16 | |
| | 17 | === Install on Linux === |
| | 18 | |
| | 19 | * '''python 2.6/2.7'''[[BR]] |
| | 20 | !MadGraph 5 requires python 2.6 or python 2.7. In order to check your version of python, you can type: |
| | 21 | python --version. Some of the repositories are still on python 2.5. So if updating python via your repository manager didn't work. |
| | 22 | you can download directly python from the following link: |
| | 23 | http://www.python.org/download/ |
| | 24 | and follow instructions. |
| | 25 | * '''Madgraph5'''[[BR]] |
| | 26 | You will find madgraph5 package on the following page: https://launchpad.net/madgraph5. |
| | 27 | For this program, you just need to untar it. |
| | 28 | To check if mg5 is correctly install you directly try to run it by doing: |
| | 29 | ./bin/mg5 |
| | 30 | If you don't have a valid python version. It will fail directly. |
| | 31 | * '''MadAnalysis'''[[BR]] |
| | 32 | This programs is not mandatory but allows to have partonic distributions done automatically. |
| | 33 | In order to install this program, you need to launch mg5 (./bin/mg5) and then type |
| | 34 | {{{ |
| | 35 | install MadAnalysis |
| | 36 | }}} |
| | 37 | |
| | 38 | === Install on !MacOs === |
| | 39 | |
| | 40 | 1. '''Basic program''' |
| | 41 | * perl |
| | 42 | * bash [[BR]] |
| | 43 | Those programs are by default present in any Mac distribution, |
| | 44 | but just in case you should check that they are all installed in your computer (by doing perl --version). |
| | 45 | * gmake [[BR]] |
| | 46 | By default, makefile are not recognize on mac. In order to check, you can do 'make --version'. If it says: |
| | 47 | -bash: make: command not found |
| | 48 | then you should install it. The easiest is to install the xcode. |

| | 54 | This program is often not included in standard mac version. In order to download it, you can download it from: |
| | 55 | a. http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/hpc/gcc-lion.tar.gz?download for !MacOs 10.7 |
| | 56 | b. http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/hpc/gcc-snwleo-intel-bin.tar.gz?download for !MacOs 10.6 |
| | 57 | c. http://sourceforge.net/projects/hpc/files/hpc/gcc/gcc-leopard-intel-bin.tar.gz/download for !MacOs 10.5 |

| | 59 | 2. '''!MadGraph5''' |
| | 60 | * '''python''' |
| | 61 | a. The default python version of !MacOs 10.6 is python 2.6 and is (in 99% of the case) fully working with Madgraph5, so nothing to install for you. |
| | 62 | b. The python version of !MacOs 10.7 is python 2.7. And this one works perfectly, so nothing to install for you. |
