getting ERROR: results .frd file was not written!

[jnschilling]

for the hole in plate full, I am getting this message. Running it in Anaconda/Jupiter: Do you have an idea to solve this ?

[spacether]

I'm not sure why that would happen. What operating system and version of python are you using? Did you install pycalculix from pip or github?

[jnschilling]

not working on W7x64 - python3.6 (anaconda) , I installed pycalculix with pip. It works on this configuration (@home) : W10x64, python 3.5.2, installed pycalculix with pip. I will be checking this further, keep you posted

[spacether]

This is because the solver is writing the file into a directory different than the one that you are in. In the latest version of pycalculix, 0.9.4 this should be fixed. Please install the library from this repository and try it again.

Hi! Many thanks for keeping pycalculix going.

I am experiencing the same "ERROR: results .frd file was not written!" problem in Windows 7 x64, Python3.6 (Anaconda). I have two probably very idiotic questions:

• how can I update to 0.94?
• how can I "install the library from this repository"?

All the best! pp

Hi PP,

Please install pycalculix v0.9.4 and it should fix your problems. You can do that with the following steps: 1) Download the zip file here https://github.com/spacether/pycalculix/archive/master.zip 2) unzip it 3) go into the unzipped folder 'pycalculix-master' using your terminal/command line program 4) run these command in the terminal: pip install . pycalculix-add-feaprograms 5) close your terminal window and delete the unzipped folder and the zip file

Now you should be able to import pycalculix in python and run the examples here: https://github.com/spacether/pycalculix/tree/master/examples Let me know if you have any more questions.

Best, Justin Black

Thank you very much, Justin.

I followed your instructions (in Anaconda Prompt), but 'pycalculix-add-feaprograms' gave the following error messages:

I afterwards tried running the example "hole-in-plate-full.py" and execution stopped when trying to write the 'hole-in-plate-full.inp' file

File: hole-in-plate-full.geo was written gmsh hole-in-plate-full.geo -2 -o hole-in-plate-full.inp File: hole-in-plate-full.inp was written Meshing done!

Before, with pycalculix 0.93, I could also not run 'pycalculix-add-feaprograms' successfully, the pycalculix crashed later, when trying to write the results .frd file.

PP,

It looks like you down't have permission to move or copy files in the Anaconda folder. Can you try running your terminal as an administrator: Run CMD.exe under admin rights (right click on cmd.exe and choose Run As Administrator). Then please run: pycalculix-add-feaprograms

Please also open an issue describing your problem here: https://github.com/spacether/pycalculix/issues

This way others can see the solution when we find it. Best, Justin Black
