Hello,

I was trying to build EnergyPlus (V9-1-0) on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.5, on which I built successfully EnergyPlus V8-7-0, and I got the following errors. I used gcc 5.5.0 and, cmake 3.14.5 and python 2.7.5.

Does someone have any idea for these problem and know how to solve these problems please?

Thanks

Maybe try a newer version of GCC?

I get the same using Ubuntu 16.04, GCC 5.4.0 when I build V9.2.0-IOFreeze or the current develop. It does work fine on Ubuntu 18.04 with gcc 7.4.0 though...

Hello, Thanks both for your comment and suggestion. Yes it seems to work with a higher version of gcc. I still have had another problem but it was not related to the gcc version anymore when I used gcc 7.2.0. Long
