CHEMKIN Input file to Cantera .cti file

[ANKIT SACHAN]

Hey, 

I'm using cantera with matlab interface and i'm trying to convert my reaction mechanism datasheet into .cti file but some error is coming. Here i'm posting both datasheet and screenshot of my error message. Can someone help me out with this problem.

Thank you

Ankit,

Did you install the Python module in addition to the MATLAB module? As it states in the installation instructions (http://cantera.org/docs/sphinx/html/install.html#windows), both are necessary for the MATLAB module to work properly.

Regards,

Bryan

PS in the future, please copy and paste the error message into your post, rather than a screenshot. This is for a couple of reasons - 1) no one can search for a screenshot, so this post can't help future users; 2) blind users cannot read the image, but they may have some software to read text

As you said about the installation, i have already done that part but still some issues are there.

This is the error that i'm getting.

Ankit,

Can you please open a Windows command terminal and type

python -c "import sys; print(sys.path); import cantera; print(cantera.__file__)"

Are you sure you installed the Python module for Cantera into the correct directory, with the correct bitness of the Cantera module to match your Python version (32-bit vs 64-bit)? Do you have multiple versions of Python installed?

Regards,

Bryan
