Jobs

Job submitted but it never runs. (using CAE or Python)

Job submitted but it never runs. (using CAE or Python)

Hi all,

Since I run Abaqus from Linux, I have the following problem : my job is submitted but it never runs. Apparently CAE writes the .inp file and then I can run the job from the X :

abaqus job = 'my Job'

Normally I thought I should just submit my Job in CAE and get back the result...

Maybe the routine in Abaqus has the wrong path when I submit the job. Maybe it's possible to change this path but which file do I have to modify ?

Thanks for your help.

Try running it from the job module.

Thanks corus,

Actually this is what I'm trying to do from CAE : from the Job Module I click on submit, and my_Job is submitted. At this point the PC does nothing else, no error message, no freezing, no calculus...

My_Job is just wrote in my folder (my_Job.inp), and CAE is still prompting "my_Job has been submitted...".

For having the file my_Job.odb, I have to write the following expression in a X-terminal : abaqus job=my_Job.

Does it create a .log file? That might have some clues.

Hi vumat721 and thanks for your valuable contribution.

Yes it creates a .log file which apparently record an error. How could I fix it ?
