Hello,

I am getting below error when try to make at the analysis directory. error as below.

Can you check whether the file Braking_0_0.3_0.vec actually contains results?

[SafrasIqbal]

Hi Michele,

Thanks for responding to the query. I checked the file Braking_0_0.3_0.vec. it has 1.4 MB of data. first few lines of it for your perusal

According to the first lines, this is not the output file for the Braking scenario, but for the Sinusoidal scenario. Are you sure you picked the right file?

[SafrasIqbal]

Oh, I'm sorry it's my bad. your right its Sinusoidal. The Braking scenario as below.

The file looks good to me. Can you attach the file an answer so I can try analyzing it myself?

[SafrasIqbal]

Yes sure. the results folder attached herewith. thanks

results.zip

[michele-segata]

Thanks. Parsing works fine for me. Can you try installing the OMNeT libray for R you find here (omnetpp_0.7-1.tar.gz) and try again?

[SafrasIqbal]

Hi Again,

I got below error when I trying to install earlier as well and I amended the script with space between literal and identifier. then it worked. Maybe this is the reason it's not working for me. Please advise how to fix the below issue. Maybe something due to my system configuration issue. Much appreciate your help. thanks

[michele-segata]

Ah you are using R version 4.0. I never tested the scripts with R 4.0. Do you have any chances to downgrade to R version 3.5.1?

[SafrasIqbal]

Ok sure, will find out a way to downgrade to version 3.5.1. Thanks

[SafrasIqbal]

Hi Michele,

I was not able to find an exact version of 3.5.1. and I took the closest version as 3.6.3 and faced the same issue as 4.0. Subsequently, I tried the next version it was 3.3.3, and it just works fine.

Steps followed after R 3.3.3. institution.

1] Smooth installtion of custom omnepp packge. 2] Tried straight away to 'make' from the analysis folder but it was demanding for 'reshape2' package. so install the additional packages as described in the PLEXE building page.
3] Finally results generated as expected. 👍

Thank you for your support. much appreciated.

A quick question, I wanted to try PLEXE Example 2 but I assume it's not ready with PLEXE 3.0? as its required changes in sumo. Please let me know if you have any plans to release this update or its already up there somewhere. Thank you.

Regards, Safras

Many thanks for the feedback. I will need to check what is wrong with new R versions.

You are right. Currently example 2 is not available. But if you are interested in that specific example, you are probably interested in implementing a new controller. In that case, following the instructions indicating how changes to the code have been made (here) should work. Maybe with small differences, but the core concept remains the same.

Hi Michele,

Thank you for taking the time to reply to my queries. Appreciate your help. I will keep an eye on the updates on the PLEXE system as I am trying to replicate a Sybil attack scenario on the platoon system. For now, I am trying to work on the join manurers and underhand how it works and try my scenarios. In the meantime, if I encounter any further issues, I will reach out to you. Thank you.

I will close this thread as it resolved the plotting issue.

Regards,

Safras
