the SPECFEM3D_Cartesian code does not work from the root directory #109

Closed komatits closed 10 years ago

komatits commented 10 years ago

The SPECFEM3D_Cartesian code does not work from the root directory, when running the defaut Par_file from there the codes try to open a file from a directory one level above (../DATA), which of course does not exist:

user@laptop: ./bin/xdecompose_mesh 40 DATA/Par_file OUTPUT_FILES/DATABASES_MPI/ Can't open '../DATA/Par_file'

opening file failed, please check your file path and run-directory. error opening Par_file

Same problem in xgenerate_databases and xspecfem3D I think.

I do not know if that is an issue. But that is clearly inconsistent with SPECFEM3D_GLOBE that is ran with ./bin/xspecfem3d from the root directory, while SPECFEM3D_Cartesian is ran with ./xspecfem3d from the bin/ directory.

mpbl commented 10 years ago

By the way, that is pseudo-user-defined in setup/constants.h(.in) (where you specify the directory structure).

Thanks. Let us change it, because both 2D and 3D_GLOBE run from the root dir. (no need to leave the other option of running from "bin", which is confusing)

thanks Dimitri

@komatits Can you please check that everything is properly changed in the examples? Then we can close this issue. Thanks a lot.

komatits commented 10 years ago

Tested, and works fine. Thanks for fixing it. Let me close the issue then.

Not sure if the "process.sh" scripts in the examples still work fine though, now that the paths have changed (I have only tested the two new scripts that I have added a few minutes ago, and which run the two default examples from the root dir)
