HI all,

I’m new with OpenMC so i’m trying to learn using python in linux 18.04.1. But when i use the example (Criticality Search) it won’t process. Can’t anyone help me.

This is my conda list :
guixian@guixian-X442URR:~$ conda list

packages in environment at /home/guixian/anaconda3:

Hi Kristina,

Try calling the search_for_keff function with the print_output argument set to True. This should help figure out what went wrong when OpenMC was executed. If the error is still not clear at that point, feel free to post again and we can try to diagnose further.

Best,
Paul

Hi Kristina – this appears to be the same problem that was reported here. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to reproduce the problem on my own machine so I’m not exactly sure what’s going on. I suspect it is some kind of mismatch between a compiler version used by conda or a shared library, but it’s hard to say what exactly. I’ll try to take a look again sometime this week and let you know if I come up with anything.

Best,
Paul
