I am new to SMOKE and emissions modeling in general and I am having an issue trying to run the test case in SMOKE. I am getting the error below. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do your compile and link flags have `-qopenmp` in them? If not, add it and see what happens. ---

@NRiceKYDAQ Did you resolve this issue? I’m getting the same error trying to run the test case with SMOKE v4.7. @cjcoats Do I add “-qopenmp” to the Makeinclude file at $SMK\_HOME/subsys/smoke/src/, then do “make clean” and then “make”? ---

Alternatively, this might be a `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` problem. Go to the directory where the Intel compilers are installed, and find the directory where _libiomp_ lives (`find . -name 'libiomp.*'`) and make sure that this directory is in it: if this directory is `/foo/intel/lib`, then `setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH "${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/foo/intel/lib"` and try _make_ for SMOKE again. ---

@epenning I was using a fresh install of Ubuntu and did not have the /opt/intel directory installed. I installed Intel Parallel Studio XE with root permission and it fixed this issue. ---

@epenning @NRiceKYDAQ Sorry, I am new to SMOKE. How to add “-qopenmp” to the Makeinclude file? Thanks in advance.
