fwiw the MYPATH
isn't in the output, I just didn't want to post the whole file path
James,
The cluster is probably using Redhat Linux, so the Mac OS X binaries won’t work. Do you have access to Linux-compiled binaries of HYSPLIT? If so, I could include those in SplitR. Then your runs would likely work!
Best, Rich

Hi @rich-iannone https://github.com/rich-iannone,
I'm trying to run on a cluster because I have a fairly large number of trajectories I want to run. If I run a simple script,
library(SplitR) hysplit_trajectory() I see that the .gbl files download without trouble, but then I get an error message
sh: /vega/eeeng/users/jwd2136/rpackages/SplitR/osx/hyts_std: cannot execute binary file Clearly the cluster is having trouble executing the HYSPLIT binaries in the Splitr/osx folder. This may be an issue on my end and I can talk to the server people about it but I wanted to ask if you had seen something like this before.

Sure, makes sense -- I see in the hysplit_trajectory
that all UNIX systems use the OSX binaries. The Red Hat guess is spot on as well. From a coding perspective, is it better to include compiled binaries in the SplitR
package or to compile them locally?
It would probably be easier for the end-user if the binaries were to be included in the package. It's easy enough to detect that R is running in Linux and then use the correct binaries. I'll take a look at compiling some HYSPLIT from source for x86 Linux.
OK, I just reached out to the guy that the HYSPLIT web site says is in charge of distributing linux binaries
@rich-iannone thanks for addressing this -- saw you updated.
If I run
with_libpaths(new = "/********/rpackages", install_github('SplitR'))
library(SplitR)
hysplit_trajectory()
I'm still getting the
/hmt/*********/R/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu-library/3.2/SplitR/osx/hyts_std: cannot execute binary file
do I need to change something so it's not looking for the binaries in the osx
folder?
While the linux binaries are indeed available in the package itself, I do have to build in the detection of the OS. I will do that v. soon. (Then I'll have to test this on a Linux partition to make sure it works!)
Jumped the gun! Don't rush for my sake, I have a rough week ahead anyways :)
It's okay! But I'll totally get back to it because I'm keen to have the trajectory models working on three platforms.
Alright @jdossgollin , there is now support for Linux in SplitR. However, take note of the argument names: I've just made them shorter so you'll have to modify calls to hysplit_trajectory
with a lot of find and replace.
Cool!
