(OP)
hi all,

I am trying to run a python script from the command prompt without opening abaqus cae. I am using now the command :

abaqus cae nogui=name.py

i am getting the following error, eventhough the script works just fine when i run it from cae.

AttributeError: 'Model' object has no attribute 'HomogeneousSolidSection'
File "shelf.py", line 39, in ?
    shelf_mod.HomogeneousSolidSection(name='steel',material='steel',thickne
ss=10)


is there any other command to use or what?

thanks
