Error Building Case with isofCaseBuilder

[elitewill1200]

I have installed insightcae-ce using apt on ubuntu 20.04 as descibed in the docuemtnation. I was following a simple tutorial to build a case and every time it runs into the same issue

from Insight.toolkit import *
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'Insight'

It appears the python module didn't install correctly. This error is also thrown when trying to import the insight toolkits into python3.8. I tried installing Insight with

pip install Insight

it seemed successful but the error persists

Added traceback for clarificuation:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/insightcae/bin/isofRun.py", line 6, in <module>
    from Insight.toolkit import *
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'Insight'

it seems to be failing right as snappyHexMeshConfiguration is starting

I also just ran

sudo apt install insighttoolkit4-python3

to see if that works. No dice...

Hi,

the package "insighttoolkit4-python3" has nothing to do with InsightCAE.

Please try installing our development package first. I recently made some changes in the python integration.

The steps for installing from the development repo are the same as outlined on our website but you need to replace the URL with:

$ sudo add-apt-repository http://downloads.silentdynamics.de/ubuntu_dev

(note the "_dev" suffix in the URL) Please let me know, if that changed something.

I added the dev branch after your suggestion but my internet is taking a while.

I installed the development package on a fresh install of Ubuntu, the same error occurred when hitting run. TestCase.zip here is the test case I am trying

[hkroeger]

Ok, thanks for the feedback.

I will check your case and get back in due course.

I found the issue:

in the file /opt/insightcae/bin/insight_setenv.sh, line 45 should be changed from

if which python >/dev/null 2>&1; then

to

if which python3 >/dev/null 2>&1; then

I will schedule that fix in the next rebuild.

By the way:

I corrected three issues in your input file "test.iscb":

1. there were two "Numerics" case elements added (MeshingNumerics and steadyIncompressibleNumerics). You dont' need MeshingNumerics. This is only needed, if you want to create an OpenFOAM case only for running e.g. snappyHexMesh and without any solver configuration (if you want to assemble a mesh from a set of simpler, indiviually created meshes)
2. reduced the maximum refinement level on the geometry.
3. changed the sign of the velocity at the inlet. It was directed out of the domain as you set it up.

Please find the file with corrections attached. test_modified.iscb.zip
