BEAST2 INSTALL PROBLEMS - CUDA AND NVIDIA PROBLEMS

[stephanie Rodrigues]

Hi Everyone,

I have a MAC (OS X EL CAPITAN - VERSION 10.11.6, Early 2015)

I`m trying to install BEAST 2 (without Java) and I received the following error: 

"It appears you have CUDA installed, but your computer hardware does not support it. You need to remove"  (attached)

I tried to uninstall CUDA following the command line instructions that the error message gave but I couldn`t because I don`t have CUDA or NVDIA

Basically, BEAST 2 is recognizing that i have CUDA installed but I don`t have and I can`t delete.

What should I do?

 Thank you to the help!

Regards,

This happened to me, too -- I think it's actually something wrong with Beast being able to find Java (even though I already had Java installed). Deleting my original BEAST 2 download and replacing it with the version that comes with java solved the problem for me.

Hope this helps!

Just a heads up - I recently got a new Macbook Pro Retina with the Radeon R9 M370X.

I migrated my old profile from my 2017 Retina and has the same issues.

To fix, I removed these CUDA files manually from macOS:

/Library/Frameworks/CUDA.framework

/Library/LaunchAgents/com.nvidia.CUDASoftwareUpdate.plist

/Library/PreferencePanes/CUDA Preferences.prefPane

/System/Library/Extensions/CUDA

/System/Library/StartupItems/CUDA

/usr/local/cuda/lib/libcuda.dylib

This might be too late. I had the same problem but installing JDK solved the issue and BEAST opens without any problems.
