OpenSeesSP 2.2.2 - actor error

Post by MaurizioCh »

I cannot manage to get OpenSeesSP 2.2.2 to work. I have tried running different models including
/EXAMPLES/TeraGridExamples/Example1.tcl. The outcome is the same every time; it seems that
it cannot invoke the actor objects. I checked whether MPI was working with cpi.exe and it looked
like everything is doing what is supposed to. Also note that when I run Example1.tcl in OpenSeesSP
2.1.0 I encounter no problems. Below is the error message I get when I try to run the models in
OpenSeesSP 2.2.2 :

>>mpiexec -mapall -localonly 2 OpenSeesSP.exe Example1.tcl

Master Process Running OpenSees Interpreter 0

FEM_ObjectBrokerAllClasses::getNewActor - - no ActorType type exists for class tag 1
MachineBroker::run(void) - invalid actor type
MachineBroker::startActor() - could not start actorType: 1

If I could get some help to get on track to figure out what I am doing wrong I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thank you very much,

It seems I am getting the same error:

MachineBroker::startActor() - could not start actorType: 1

I am using Windows XP (64-bit platform). Does anyone have an answer for this error?

Thanks!
