Abaqus optimization error due to missing parameterfile

Abaqus optimization error due to missing parameterfile

Abaqus optimization error due to missing parameterfile

(OP)
Hi, thanks for reading.

I am having this problem where when I submit an optimization job for validation, I get the following error

Error in Opt-Process-1: Optimization parameterfile given by --opt <parameter-file> does not exist.
Error in Opt-Process-1: Check that parameterfile "Opt-Process-1.par" exist !
Error in Opt-Process-1: Optimization process failed with an error.


Have no idea how to fit it, and no solution online either.

Any ideas would be appreciated to the max!

Thanks, Tim

RE: Abaqus optimization error due to missing parameterfile

So, first question: Do you have an optimization parameter file setup? Is the syntax in it correct? Is it on the path or in the folder you are calling Abaqus from?

Hello , thanks for your reply. I actually have no idea what that file is. I can't find any mention of it in the manual or the optimization example. ..

Ideas? Tim :)

RE: Abaqus optimization error due to missing parameterfile

Posting your files and/or the commands you're trying to execute would help. Which optimization example are you speaking of?

RE: Abaqus optimization error due to missing parameterfile

(OP)
The example is in the Abaqus Example Problems Manual
11 Structural Optimization Analyses
11.1 Topology optimization analyses
11.1.1 Topology optimization of an automotive control arm
file

The file is there too.

When I click submit (the optimization job), the error posted above shows up.

Cheers,

Tim
