Hello,
I recently attended the SCALE course at the NEA in Paris (last week), and was told to contact this address if I had problems using/installing SCALE.
I am having some trouble getting SCALE correctly installed on my macbook. I've managed to follow through the installation instructions given in the mac/linux installation readme, but encountered some problems along the way - receiving error messages saying the scripts couldn't find Scale_Dir. I set this myself using the export and the install script executed without any errors I noticed, however when I run the sample problems, although nothing is written to nohup.out, each .msg file in Darwin_9/smplprbs shows the following output:

cp: /Users/joelturner/LANL/SCALE6/data/.scalerc: No such file or directory

cat: print: No such file or directory
and the Darwin_9/bin directory contains only two files -
collect_output and makedirectory.
If you could provide some guidance as to how to install correctly that would be brilliant, I am a novice user when it comes to compiling using the terminal.
I'm running an intel mac, with OS X 10.5.8. Please let me know which, if any, log files to send over.
Many thanks,

Joel,
SCALE6.0 was only released with Darwin_8 binaries. The Darwin_8 binaries are compatible with Darwin_9, so you can resolve this issue in two steps.
1. Rename Darwin_8 directory to Darwin_9 2. Edit the Darwin_9/data/qatable. Replace all references to Darwin_8 with Darwin_9.
This should resolve your issues. Please let us now if you run into any other problems.
Thank you,

Hi,
I have the same problem after installation.

I try the methods you mentioned to resolve the problem, but I can not find the directory Darwin_10 in my system. 'bin' and 'data' directory are the subdirectory of /scale/scale6.
I'm running an intel mac, with OS X 10.6.7. Please help me to solve the problem. Thanks.
By the way, according to readme file users can use the command 'nohup ./runsmpls &' to execute the standard problems. However I can not find 'runsmpls' anywhere. How can I run all the sample problems of SCALE6? Many thanks.
