OpenSeesMP and Monitor Function

Post by vokumus » Mon Oct 19, 2020 11:33 am

Hi;

Does "monitor" functionality of STKO not support OpenSeesMP? I tried it with MP but it gives an error and I couldn't be sure it is supported or not.

Also it seems that "download files" link of the 14th webinar (interactions) directs us to the 13th webinar (common errors). Didn't want to open a new topic for this.

Thanks.

Hi Vefa,
The monitor function should work for OpenSeesMP as well. Could you show the error that you have?

This is the link on our website and it seems to point to the right files:

Could you double-check it?

Hi;

Thanks for the reply. I attached an image of the error I get. Single processor works well.

This is strange that I checked that multiple times yesterday. Sorry for bothering you.

Oh ok... This is a very rare problem that happened to a just 2 other users. On some windows 10 PCs, when running OpenSeesMP (due to some admin restrictions) it does not read an environment variable that tells the Monitor that we can use Python inside STKO. So it tries to use the Python on your system. But your Python does not have the PySide2 package that instead is available if you run it via STKO's Python.

Once the analysis started, you can simply run the monitor manually, open a terminal windows in the directory where you have your SCD file. There you also have the STKOMonitor Directory. type

Code: Select all

.\STKOMonitor\STKOMonitor.bat

I am not surprised because MP related rare problems find me every time :) Thank you very much for the quick reply.
