Cannot Merge h5m files with CAd_to_OpenMC

Hello,

I ran this code to convert CAD files to h5m using CAD_to_OpenMC:

import CAD_to_OpenMC.assembly as ab

CORE = ab.Assembly([“msre_core.step”])

CORE.run(backend=‘stl2’, merge=True, h5m_filename=‘msre_core.h5m’)

DETECTOR_ROD = ab.Assembly([“Detector Rod3.step”])

DETECTOR_ROD.run(backend=‘stl2’, merge=True, h5m_filename=‘detector_rod3.h5m’)

PIT = ab.Assembly([“msre_pit.step”])

PIT.run(backend=‘stl2’, merge=True, h5m_filename=‘msre_pit.h5m’)

CR = ab.Assembly([“msre_control_rod.step”])

CR.run(backend=‘stl2’, merge=True, h5m_filename=‘msre_control_rod.h5m’)

ab.merge2h5m([CORE,PIT], h5m_file=‘msre_reactor.h5m’)

However, I got the following error:

Perhaps not a clear error message that is being returned here but I think MOAB is saying that it can’t find the h5m file at the specified path. You could try putting in the absolute path instead of the relative path to the h5m file
