[MODFLOW] error opening dis file

Hi! I was running GSFLOW from C:\GSFLOW_1.1.6\bin when I suddenly got this message:

I tried running GSFLOW with the Sagehen example and it was working just fine.

 

Do you have any suggestion on what I should do to fix this?

 

I used ModelMuse Version 2.19.1.0.

It looks like there is a problem with your discretization file. Is there a file called trial.dis in your project folder?

GSFLOW wasn't able to find the trial.dis file in the directory in which
you were running the model.

Yes. It is in the same folder as trial.nam. C:\modflow\trial.dis

Yes, trial.dis is in the same folder as trial.nam.

 

(I'm sorry for the confusion by I didn't know my friend Grace logged in to gmail so I kinda used her account to reply earlier.)

[Richard B. Winston]

Instead of running GSFLOW from C:\GSFLOW_1.1.6\bin, run it from
C:\modflow\. GSFLOW is looking for trial.dis in C:\GSFLOW_1.1.6\bin.

Thank you for your answer!

 

I tried it and here's some details:

 

GSFLOW Batch File (C:\trial\gsflow.bat)

 

@ECHO OFF

.\modflow\gsflow_64 .\trial_in\trial.control
ECHO.
ECHO Run complete. Please press enter when you want to continue.
PAUSE>NUL

 

gsflow_64, trial.nam, trial.dis (and all the other modflow files) are now in the same folder (C:\trial\modflow). I have also changed the path for the executable_model in the control file. But I got the same error.

 

Did I miss anything?

 

(I copied only gsflow_64 from C:\GSFLOW_1.1.6\bin though; I did not copy any other file)

 

I'm really thankful for your help.

If you are still having trouble, try this.
It appears that some of the GSFLOW files were created with ModelMuse so
you also have a copy of ModelMonitor which is distributed with ModelMuse.
Go to the Start menu on your computer and start ModelMonitor.
On the Configuration pane in ModelMonitor, select the location of GSFLOW
as the modeling program.
Select the name file of your model as the Name or LGR file.
Click the "Start model" button.

Hi, 

I met the exactly same problem with the same error. I tried all the method mentioned above, including trying with ModelMonitor, but I still got the error.

Is anyone get a way to solve this problem?

Thank you very much!
