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 ?

Please check the .dat, .msg, and .sta files for error messages if the files
exist. If there are no error messages and you cannot resolve the problem,
please run the command "abaqus job=support information=support" to report and
save your system information. Use the same command to run Abaqus that you
used when the problem occurred. Please contact your local Abaqus support
office and send them the input file, the file support.log which you just
created, the executable name, and the error code.
