SUAVE BWB running error with latest packages

[russell quadros]

Hi,

Could someone please suggest a fix to this problem associated with running the BWB SUAVE tutorial:

  File "/home/russell/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/SUAVE-2.4.0-py3.8.egg/SUAVE/Input_Output/GMSH/write_geo_file.py", line 100, in read_keys

    f = open(filename)

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'base.key'

The complete error message is attached. I have run the tutorial off the shelf after installing OpenVSP, GMSH and SU2 as suggested in the tutorial webpage and commenting out the following line in BWB.py:

#aerodynamics.process.compute.lift.inviscid.training_file = 'base_data_1500.txt'

 

The versions are as follows:

OpenVSP: 3.25.0

SU2: 7.2.1 "Blackbird"

GMSH: 4.9.0

Many thanks,

Russell

Hi,

I've been trying to reproduce this error. But I have been unable to do so.

It's missing the .key file which tells GMSH which surfaces are which for meshing. That .key file is provided by OpenVSP. Can you check the folder and make sure the other OpenVSP files are created? If they are, open them up and check if the vehicle looks okay.

Hi everyone,

I'm facing the same problem with 

OpenVSP 3.26.1

SU2 7.3.0
GMSH 4.9.5

SUAVE 2.5.0.2

Attached you can find an image of the complete cmd with the error message and another image with the files created by the run in the BW CFD folder.

It seems that it creates a ".key" file but instead of naming it simply "base.key", it names it "base_premesh_NASCART.key".

I then tried to "cheat", hoping it would be that simple,  renamed the .key file into "base.key" and launched the script again.

This time it runs untill a new error message appears :

Probably I was wrong in the first place renaming the file, but i had to try!

Hope what I have provided is useful to solve the problem also for other users

Thank you in advance!
