Running DIRAC error: "Could not construct hdf5 checkpoint file"

[Juan E. Arias Martinez]

Greetings,

I am attempting to run my first DIRAC calculation and have yet to succeed. I believe I have successfully installed in the cluster I use with

./setup --mpi --fc=mpif90 --cc=mpicc --cxx=mpicxx --python=python3

When I try to run a test calculation it fails with the following error:

### Start output ###

### End output ###

It seems pam.in (line ~1925) is looking for the CHECKPOINT.h5 file, not finding it, trying to construct it with the nohdf5_load_data function from /utils/process_schema.py, and said function is not finding a file called CHECKPOINT.noh5. That's as far as I've been able to understand what's happening for now. 

Would anyone know why these h5 files are not being found / created? Am I missing something in the input files / command line argument? (These are straight from the tutorial https://www.diracprogram.org/doc/release-24/tutorials/getting_started.html)

Cheers,

Juan
