Error message during installing caffe command 'make all' about “caffe::cudnn::dataType<double>::zero”

Question

I ran

cp Makefile.config.example Makefile.config
make all

as suggested on the website to complete the installation. I use Ubuntu 15.04 with CUDA and atlas.

The error messages showed as follows

I am not sure about your case, but my solution was to uncomment the line with

# USE_OPENCV := 0
OPENCV_VERSION := 3

in 'Makefile.config' since I was with OpenCV version > 3.0.

make clean and make all -j $(($(nproc) + 1)) with all your processor. It should be fine afterwards.
