Problem with setting up Lets7 in a cluster of supercomputers #2

Open EVale opened 6 years ago

EVale commented 6 years ago

Dears,

I am currently testing some software on a super-cluster, including Lets7. We had an error that we are currently unsure how to sort out:

addpath("/usr/local/letswave7") letswave Error using save Unable to write file /usr/local/letswave7/resources/batch_plugins.mat: permission denied.

Error in LW_init (line 72) save(fullfile(p,'resources','batch_plugins.mat'),'batch_list','plugins_list');

Error in LW_manager (line 3) LW_init();

Error in letswave (line 2) LW_manager;

This seems not much use on linux systems where users cannot write to system areas. I believe it was written with the intention of users installing letswave to their own home directories. We could replace that file with a sym link to the user directories but it means any user wanting to use letswave 7 will have to copy batch_plugins.mat to their own home directory first which is a bit of a runaround. It could do with a feature similar to R where if it finds it cannot write to the file concerned, it offers to create it for the user in their home directory. Would it be possible to add this feature? Any suggestion on how to write it?

Thanks,

elia

Dear EVale, The design of the batch_plugins.mat, is used to speed up the open time fo letswave. In the design of Letswave, it allows users to define their menu personally. But I think I could do it in another way. I think sooner I will fixed this bugs. Thanks for you suggestion.

What do you mean about "super-cluster". It is about cluster-based permutation test?

Best, Gan

HI Gan,

Super cluster stands for a group of super computers that are set to process big data: http://hpc.essex.ac.uk/summaryInformation.php

Best!
