[Equest-users] Help - Parametric Run Issue

[Robert Stephenson]

Thank you for the assistance. I deleted the .prd  reloaded my .inp and
redid the parametric runs one run at a time. I lost an hour of work but
luckily not the whole model.

 

Initially I tried running all six runs at once. My coworker mentioned
that version 3.64 has issues crashing when running multiple parametric
runs. Has anyone else experienced this?

Robert,

After opening eQUEST, select the *.inp file and try loading that. 

This model might not have your parametric runs, but hopefully you could
at least salvage your base model.

Subject: [Equest-users] Help - Parametric Run Issue

I am having an issue loading my model after attempting to complete a
series of parametric runs. I have attached my .inp, .bdl, and .prd (the
txt file) files. 

 

The model ran through the first parametric run successfully and then
stopped. Therefore I have a resulting .sim file for the baseline and
first parametric run.

 

After receiving an error about expecting a character vs. numeric value
in the .prd file, I shutdown eQUEST and attempted to restart my model.
Now it will not load and my .bdl file contains the following error:

 

"ERROR: Cannot open a required file: 

USER LIBRARY FILE NAME WAS NOT SPECIFIED

It does not exist or is in use. Correct this and retry."

 

I could really use some assistance.

 

Thanks,
