[yt-users] yt on Nautilus

[meecegre at msu.edu]

Hi,

I had this same problem on Kracken. Matplotlib tries to create a hidden directory in your home directory when it is loaded, but the compute nodes don't have write access to your home directory. Try adding a line to your job script changing MPLCONFIGDIR to the local directory and see if that fixesit.

All credit to Britton who explained this to me!

Carolyn,

> RuntimeError: Could not write to MPLCONFIGDIR="/lustre/scratch/perutaca/.matplotlib/"

The error that matters is this one, above. Does that directory exist?
Is it writable? Is this your Kraken path and therefore not functional
on Nautilus?
