Scripting not working on Linux with M-V 1.02Beta1

[bshan]

Hi,

I have M-V 1.02Beta1 on both Linux and Mac.

The scripting on Mac seems working fine. (Both loading bundle and netcdf file)

But it is not working on Linux. I got the following message:

Error running jython script...
.
.
SyntaxError: mismatch input 'a' expecting INDENT.

Thanks

Bao,

How was this script transferred? It sounds like there is an error in indenting where there is a function a conditional statement.

Perhaps you could post the script?

Joleen:

I just tried the simple loading bundle script. The same script is working on Mac.


setOffScreen(1)
loadBundle("/Users/bshan/test.xidv")
pause()
writeImage("/Users/bshan/testImage.png")


Thanks
Bao

My apology, there is nothing wrong with the indenting there.

Hi Boa,

Looking at your script, it appear you may be trying to load a bundle made using IDV. Per our documentation: McIDAS-V has the ability to load and save IDV bundles (.xidv and .zidv), but all of the features between the two software packages may not be compatible, and therefore the bundles may not load properly in the other software package.

Couple of questions.

1) Was the bundle created using IDV?
2) What platform was used to create the bundle?

Can you please post your bundle and we can try loading it here.

Thanks,

Rick

I saved the bundle on Linux machine. and I run the script on Linux machine too.

I just found out that when I saved the bundle, there is error message:

Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" SyntaxError:("mismatched input 'a' expecting INDENT",('<string>',4,0,'a = "1";\n')).

When I run the script which will load the bundle ,I got the similar error message "Mismatched 'a' expect INDENT'".

So maybe it is not the script that is having problem, it is the "save bundle" function that is having problem.

Attached are the script, bundle and the source file.

Thanks

Hi Boa,

Running the latest 1.02Beta1, I was able to get your bundle and script to work correctly. I see your bundle was created from a beta version built in April. If you could, please download the latest beta and let us know if you still have any problems.

Thanks,

Rick

Rick,
Thanks for looking into this.

But I created this bundle using the latest 1.02Beta on Linux this morning. And I run the script on Linux too.

The script is working correctly on Mac with 1.02Beta though.

Hi --

When you save the bundle and get the error message, is there the option of getting more details? (Perhaps in the log file in $HOME/McIDAS-V/mcidasv.log)

Also, do you have any formulas in your Jython library that have the statement:

a = "1"

in them?

[bshan]

My mistake. I was trying to test something from Jython Library, and I forgot to remove it afterwards.

But this time, when I saved the bundle, there is no error message.

When I run the script, I got different error message.
