[yt-users] Csh environment setting bug

[Alice Coucke]

Hello everyone,

It looks like there is a bug with the csh environment setting. I am a Unix beginner so I might have done an error.
I had to make these modifications to the install script to set up yt in a csh shell OSX Lion machine :

* Disable the install of zlib. The HDF5 build failed because of some sort of version confusion.

* Force the use of gcc over the newer clang compiler by setting :
export CC=gcc
at the top of the install script. Matplotlib-1.1.0 fails to compile with the default Lion cc which is clang based.

Once installed, I had difficulties to run it. I tried to follow the Extremely Simple Data Inspection.


$ yt stats $YT_DEST/src/yt-hg/tests/DD0010/moving7_0010


BUT that is what happens :


yt : [ERROR    ] 2012-03-23 11:17:08,651 Couldn't figure out output type for /Users/acoucke/yt-i386:/src/yt-hg/tests/DD0010/moving7_0010
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/acoucke/yt-i386/bin/yt", line 9, in <module>

    sys.exit(YT.main())

    return self.cmd(args)
  File "/Users/acoucke/yt-i386/src/yt-hg/yt/utilities/cmdln.py", line 280, in cmd
    retval = self.onecmd(argv)
  File "/Users/acoucke/yt-i386/src/yt-hg/yt/utilities/cmdln.py", line 412, in onecmd
    return self._dispatch_cmd(handler, argv)
  File "/Users/acoucke/yt-i386/src/yt-hg/yt/utilities/cmdln.py", line 1100, in _dispatch_cmd
    return handler(argv[0], opts, *args)
  File "/Users/acoucke/yt-i386/src/yt-hg/yt/utilities/command_line.py", line 256, in arg_iterate
    func(self, subcmd, opts, arg)
  File "/Users/acoucke/yt-i386/src/yt-hg/yt/utilities/command_line.py", line 627, in do_stats
    pf = _fix_pf(arg)
  File "/Users/acoucke/yt-i386/src/yt-hg/yt/utilities/command_line.py", line 44, in _fix_pf
    raise IOError
IOError


Then if I type :


$ echo $YT_DEST

/Users/acoucke/yt-i386:


It seems that there is an unexpected colon here because :


$ ls /Users/acoucke/yt-i386:
ls: /Users/acoucke/yt-i386:: No such file or directory


I have to use :


setenv YT_DEST /Users/acoucke/yt-i386


to make that works.



Best,



Alice Coucke
