Problem executing acuRun

User: "Rosa Esquer Cerezo"

Hi experts!

I'm trying to execute the example of the step-by-step ACU-T1000_manifold in acuSolve cmd prompt. The sentence that i have put on it is the following:

acuRun -np 4 -inp ACU-T1000_manifold.inp

The response:
acuRun: ***ERROR: undefined problem

 

I have copied the acuSolve.exe and acuRun.bat to the working directory and i don't know if it is problem of the license or what.

 

Thank you so much

    Copying only the acuSolve.exe and acuRun.bat probably won't be enough to run the solver.  You need to execute the commands from the AcuSolve Command Prompt - not a normal command prompt.  Windows Start > Altair 'Version' > AcuSolve Cmd Prompt 'Version'

    The AcuSolve Command Prompt has other settings - environment variables, paths to compiled libraries, etc - in order for the solver to run.

    The immediate issue is that the problem name is unknown.  Once you've launched the AcuSolve Cmd Prompt - and change directory into the directory where you have your input file and Mesh directory:

    acuRun -np 4 -pb ACU-T1000_manifold

    Then by default it will use the input file ACU-T1000_manifold.inp so you don't need to specify the input file name.

    You can also see the current settings with

    acuRun -h

    You can also use Altair Compute Console:

    Windows Start > Altair 'Version' > Altair Compute Console 'Version'

    Solver pull-down > Solvers > Acusolve

    Browse to the input file (.inp) for the Input file(s) entry

    In the Options entry you can put

    -np 4

    Click 'Run'
