can't run simulation with the default file "DHT.xml"

[Eya H.D]

Hi,

I'm new user of the PeerFactSim. I can run a simulation with the default DHT.xml that we find under config folder. I get the following error message.

I'm using the latest version of PeerfactSim published on www.peerfact.org : "peerfactsimkom-community-8ba30309ae38" and the Eclipse Standard/SDK Version: Kepler Service Release 1

I hope get some help.

with my best regards,

EDH

Hi and welcome to PeerfactSim.KOM,

your error message says that the configurator does not find a required file. The sample configuration files take use of the include mechanism of XML (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XInclude). For example, the DHT.xml includes different files for the different components of the simulator. This enable use to reuse parts of the configuration in different configurations. All the included files for the DHT.xml can be find in the includes subfolder. Please check if you find the complete file hierarchy in your installation (compare https://code.google.com/p/peerfactsimkom-community/source/browse/#git%2Fconfig). Otherwise, for testing purposes, you can manually replace the include statements in the DHT.xml with the content of the included files.

I hope, my answer will help you to get started with the simulator!

Regards,

Matthias

Welcome also Form my side, I hope that your issue will be solved soon.

Just an idea, I saw you habe "thèse" in your path. Sometimes I encountered Strang behavior if I use spaces or special characters in the path. My suggestion is to skip the é and use e instead.
