As I wanted to try ifx 2024.0.1, the Intel website said to download `l_fortran-compiler_p_2024.0.1.31.sh` but not what to do next. My guess seemed to be wrong. Evidence from my Ubuntu system: ```auto john@johns-laptop:~$ ls -l l_fortran-compiler_p_2024.0.1* -rw-rw-r-- 1 john john 19788147 Dec 16 19:48 l_fortran-compiler_p_2024.0.1.31.sh john@johns-laptop:~$ source l_fortran-compiler_p_2024.0.1.31.sh bash: source: l_fortran-compiler_p_2024.0.1.31.sh: cannot execute binary file john@johns-laptop:~$ ``` Same bad result if I tried again after `source /opt/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh` What should I have done? ---

try running the following command: `bash l_fortran-compiler_p_2024.0.1.31.sh`, and if necessary, use `sudo`. I have successfully installed it on my Ubuntu system. ---

Thank you @Ali but I still can’t compile a program with the latest ifx. Evidence: ```auto john@johns-laptop:~$ cat bin/ifx.1 #!/bin/bash # compile and run a Fortran program with ifx 2024.0.1 source ~/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh compilers="~/intel/oneapi/compiler/latest" # for ifx, ifort echo "LD_LIBRARY_PATH is" $LD_LIBRARY_PATH set -x $compilers/bin/ifx -standard-semantics -static-intel -L/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/13 -limf -lgcc -lgcc_s "$@" ./a.out john@johns-laptop:~$ ./bin/ifx.1 hello.f :: initializing oneAPI environment ... ifx.1: BASH_VERSION = 5.1.16(1)-release args: Using "$@" for setvars.sh arguments: hello.f :: compiler -- latest :: debugger -- latest :: mpi -- latest :: oneAPI environment initialized :: LD_LIBRARY_PATH is /home/john/intel/oneapi/mpi/2021.11/opt/mpi/libfabric/lib:/home/john/intel/oneapi/mpi/2021.11/lib:/home/john/intel/oneapi/debugger/2024.0/opt/debugger/lib:/home/john/intel/oneapi/compiler/2024.0/opt/compiler/lib:/home/john/intel/oneapi/compiler/2024.0/lib + '~/intel/oneapi/compiler/latest/bin/ifx' -standard-semantics -static-intel -L/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/13 -limf -lgcc -lgcc_s hello.f ./bin/ifx.1: line 7: ~/intel/oneapi/compiler/latest/bin/ifx: No such file or directory + ./a.out ./bin/ifx.1: line 8: ./a.out: No such file or directory john@johns-laptop:~$ ls -l ~/intel/oneapi/compiler/latest/bin/ifx -rwxr-xr-x 1 john john 4177208 Nov 22 18:57 /home/john/intel/oneapi/compiler/latest/bin/ifx ``` What should I do now? I note that installing ifx 2024.0 automatically put the Intel stuff into /opt/intel on Nov 22 but using ` bash l_fortran-compiler_p_2024.0.1.31.sh` put it into ~/intel , and the `~/intel/oneapi/compiler/latest/bin/ifx` file was still the Nov 22 one. ---

During the installation via the GUI, ensure you modify the installation location. The default location is your home directory (`~/intel/oneapi`), but you have to change it to match the latest installation path. If you previously installed version 2024.0 in the `/opt/intel/oneapi` directory, make sure to select the same directory (`/opt/intel/oneapi`) as the installation path for the new update (2024.0.1). you may need to execute the installation using `sudo bash l_fortran-compiler_p_2024.0.1.31.sh`. ---

Thank you again @Ali. But when I tried what you suggested , hoping for 2024.0.1, the GUI installation said ```auto Intel(R) Get Started with the Intel(R) Fortran Compiler Classic and Intel(R) Fortran Compiler ID Date Version 767720 11/07/2023 2024.0(latest) ``` which made me suspect I was going to get 2024.0 again. ---

When I execute `sudo bash l_fortran-compiler_p_2024.0.1.31.sh` for the installation, this is the output I receive: ![1](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/fortran_lang/original/2X/a/a54a7dee18996a2d6c8934676f7266a43042ae79.png) If you want to modify the installation directory, you can adjust it at this stage. In my case, I changed the installation location to match the previous version: ![2](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/fortran_lang/original/2X/8/82f0dcb1bb2b63cf4c800a86233fdecca433fdbf.png) I’m not sure why it shows `2024.0` for you. Maybe this version is an update from the earlier one, `2024.0`. The new version `2024.0.1` might need the `2024.0` version to work properly. But I’m just guessing! Once the installation is complete, go to this directory to check for the new compiler: `your_installation_location/intel/oneapi/compiler/2024.0/bin` Then, execute: `./ifx --version` This should output: ```shell ifx (IFX) 2024.0.1 20231122 Copyright (C) 1985-2023 Intel Corporation.
