EP Macro Fail in jEPlus+EA

asked Nov 4

Good morning.

I'm running some parametric simulations using jEPlus using LHS and it works good. However, when I go to EA to optimize, I get a error message and it won't simulate any case. (Case is missing error)

I'm using EPMarco with ##Include and it works good in jEPlus as I said, and in EA the output folders do have the correct in.idf (and in.imf), even in the audit.out. In the file console.log i get EP Return = 0.

Now when I traspassed the project to EA, when i simulate back in jEPlus with LHS or any other method, I get this fresh error message.

Anybody has any idea? I don't have any .err or anything.

Thank you!

Hi, it will likely be an issue related to the paths of the included files. Could you put all the included files in a subfolder to the main .imf file, and "##fileprefix ./" at the start of the IMF file? If it still doesn't work, let me know your project's name on the JEA platform so I can have a look.

Hello Yi Zhang, Thank you for the reply. Actually, it was a very "dumb" mistake. I had to rearrange the joblist to recalculate just some parameters and then collect the results therefore i had unchecked "Run Simulations" in jEPlus. It's fixed now, going to leave the post as it is just in case It can be helpful.

Thanks again

The solution was to check "Run Simulation" in the Execution Tab in jEPlus which was left unchecked due to a collect results re-run.
