MotionView Batch doesn't start the MotionSolve Job automatically

H_Engbert

Dear all,

 would like to run MotionView in batch mode. According to the online help, when running the batch file, the corresponding selected solver (MotionSolve in this case) should also be run automatically. Unfortunately, this is not the case for me.
I hope someone can help me with this problem.

Greetings
HE

Hello Hendrik

Could you please confirm the following ?

1. Are you able to run MotionSolve interactively from MotionView GUI ?

2. with the command that you provided above, was the xml (V01_C_Mix_Super_ULS.xml) generated in the given directory ?

Answer to the above questions will reveal if MotionView can find the solver and there is a problem invoking MotionView.

Now, the mdl_batch command,

mdl_batch model.mdl runfile.xml MotionSolve

The above command will just export a MotionSolve xml from the model, but will not start the run.

To run MotionSolve job through mdl_batch, you need to provide additional option of -SCRIPT

MotionView has a solver script "MotionSolve" registered by default.

So, your command would look something like below

mdl_batch model.mdl runfile.xml MotionSolve -SCRIPT:MotionSolve

Note that, with the above command, the model would be exported with the current active analysis in the model if any. You may use the -ANALYSIS option to run a specific Analysis or run ALL Analysis.

mdl_batch model.mdl runfile.xml MotionSolve -ANALYSIS:analysis_varname -SCRIPT:MotionSolve

Try this and let know how it goes.
