baramFlow.main errors when I run it

[CSutter5]

Describe the bug and To Reproduce I am following the Installation Guide on the website. Once I get to the step where I run python -m baramFlow.main it throws the following error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<frozen runpy>", line 198, in _run_module_as_main
  File "<frozen runpy>", line 88, in _run_code

Hi @PizzaRules668 This is Donggyu. First of all, thank you for your interest in BARAM.

Actually, BARAM doesn't support the Arch Linux like Manjaro Linux, Endeavour Linux. But there is a way to install and run BARAM on Manjaro Linux. We recommend you to install with Apptainer. You can follow on this page.

After following this page if you have the same problem again, please contact to us again.

Hi, @PizzaRules668. Thank you for the report. The exception Traceback shows crucial information for a bug. I will fix it in next release. By the way, it may happen with Python 3.11 and is ok with Python 3.9. Could you try running BARAM with Python 3.9?

@jiban thanks for the response switching to python 3.9 fixed the problem
