Error with running mpi code and python

[Jared Seehusahai]

Hello, I'm pretty new to this all, but was able to install netpyne, neuron and mpi and run the tutorial 1 code on netpynes website using the command "mpiexec -n 4 nrniv -python -mpi tut1.py ".

However, when I try to run code from a paper I'm working on understanding (TACS_effects_network/README.md at main · OpitzLab/TACS_effects_network · GitHub) using the command "mpiexec -n 4 -python run_2C_tACS_network_par.py" I get the error: mpiexec: Error: unknown option "-python"                                                                                                                           Type 'mpiexec --help' for usage.      

Any ideas what could be going on?

I'm doing this all on a windows computer using WSL ubuntu

Hello,

It seems you're missing `nrniv` option. Please try:
mpiexec -n 4 nrniv -python run_2C_tACS_network_par.py

Best,
