Dear PyNE group,
I am a graduate researcher working on integral cross section uncertainty propagation for the fast neutron source at UTK. MCNP is my preferred computational tool for my simulations, and PyNE is a source code I would like to utilize with PTRAC outputs. I am having issues with installation (Windows 11 with Oracle Virtualbox VM). Upon downloading the .ova file and starting it in the virtual machine (VM), I am getting the following error, with nothing occurring afterwards.
I cannot find any installation or source files once I open the .ova in the VM. Am I doing something wrong? Should I download python on the VM prior to running the pyne.ova file? I would really like to figure this out!
Thanks, Garrett

Hi Garrett,
Sorry that you are having such a hard time getting this going. As you have probably seen, our documentation for using a VM is a little out of date. Can you confirm how you are trying to proceed with the message below? Is this in a Ubuntu VM or using Windows Subsystem for Linux?
Paul

Dear Paul,
My apologies for any ambiguity with my previous attempt at installation. Ubuntu WSL is how I managed to properly install pyne (after finally running the ubuntu.sh file). I imported pyne into python and double checked to make sure it was an accessible module and it popped up when I ran help() modules. I then tried to import MCNP by running [from pyne import mcnp] to receive the following error regarding no module named progress within the utils.py file. I am unsure why this is occurring. I look forward to digging into the program and seeing what all there is to offer inside pyne, but my main objective is to read PTRAC files from MCNP.
Thanks, Garrett

My apologies for any ambiguity, but I was trying different methods of installation and got stuck using both VM and Ubuntu WSL. For the past few days, I have figured out how to install PYNE (after finally running the ubuntu.sh file) and get it imported into python interactively using Ubuntu WSL. After installing python, I ran help() modules to make sure PYNE was a module I can use, and it successfully pops up in the list (shown below). When I try to import mcnp, I am getting an error about no module named "progress" within the utils.py file (also shown below). My ultimate goal is to read ptrac files from MCNP.

Hi again Garrett,
Great to hear that you’ve made some good progress. We recently added a dependency on the progress module to show a progress bar for some long-running methods.
If you are using pip to install other python packages, you should be able to run `pip install progress` and have that module available.
Paul
