Problem with lpp conversion to VTK form file for postprocessing

Submitted by wangyin47@gmail.com on Thu, 05/29/2014 - 04:23

Hi, there

After running the conveyor example and obtained a dump4000.conveyor,
I encountered a problem when tried to convert the dump.file to VTK form file,
by typing 'lpp dump4000.conveyor', with an error displayed on screen of terminal on Linux,
"python can't open file 'home/eric/LIGGGHTS/mylpp/src/lpp.py".
Can any one has the same experience and sort it out? thanks.

I have followed the CFDEM installation manual to install the python -numpy, by typing
"sudo apt-get install python-numpy”.

Hi

Two things:

  1. The path home/eric/LIGGGHTS/mylpp/src/lpp.py exists and is correct?
  2. I assume that you added an alias to your bashrc similar to alias lpp="python /home/eric/LIGGGHTS/mylpp/src/lpp.py". Did you write the slash (/) before home?
