Error Running the examples -subprocess.CalledProcessError

[Greenhorno90]

Hello,

when I try to run the examples I get this error message:

subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command 'ccx -version; exit 0' returned non-zero exit status 201.

Hi,
If you answer the below questions I can help resolve the issue.

1. What operating system are you using?
2. Is it 32 bit or 64 bit?
3. If you run ccx from the terminal or command prompt what does it say?
4. What version of pycalculix are you using?
5. Did you previously run pycalculix-add-feaprograms?

Hello,

thank you for your fast reply. To the questions:

1. Windows 7
2. 64 bit
3. Ccx is running without any error in the windows commandline, running the python code, the resultfile .frd is safed but program fails right after that step
4. 0.9.5, installed yesterday in the command line
5. During installation yesterday

Thank you and best regards!

Hi @Greenhorno90 thank you for providing the above info. Please paste the results that are printed when you run ccx -version; exit 0 in the terminal. My guess is that the function which checks which version of ccx is being used is not working here: https://github.com/spacether/pycalculix/blob/master/pycalculix/results_file.py#L1101

Hi, here is the result I when I run ccx -version; exit 0

This is Version 2.12

Hi,

the problem seems to be located here:
" if check and retcode:
raise CalledProcessError(retcode, process.args,
output=stdout, stderr=stderr) "

check is true and retcode 201

Executing 2 commands in windows cmd is done by: &

thus, correction as follows should fix the problem:

"
def check_ccx_version(self, timeout=1):
"""Raises an exception of the calculix ccx version is too old"""
runstr = "%s -version & exit 0" % (environment.CCX)
....
"

I have verified that running the tests in the new branch https://github.com/spacether/pycalculix/tree/bug/windows_fixes works

Issue is fixed in version 1.1.0
