Re: [TRNSYS-users] cnfgtr
Isabelle,
I am trying to install TRNSYS on a laptop (running under Window 2000
professional). When trying to run Tnsys from IIsiBat, it reports an
"error 1" which should come from the cnfgtr file.
I copied that one from my personal computer (on which everything runs
fine). Can somedy help me with that problem ?
Error 1 is most often an indication that TRNSYS could not find the deck
file, which happens if it is installed in a folder with spaces in the
name (such as "C:\Program Files") or if the deck itself is in a folder
with spaces (e.g. "My Projects"). TRNSYS 15 is NOT compatible with
spaces and MUST be installed in X:\Trnsys15, where X is any drive.
By the way, where should this file be located ? I have a few of them in
various directories...
You only need one cnfgtr.trn file, which should be in X:\Trnsys15. Some
releases of Trnsys 15 had a tendency to create empty cnfgtr.trn files in
your deck directory, and sometimes you also have non-empty files in your
deck directory. You can safely erase all of them (except the one in
X:\trnsys15), but you can also leave them if you use the latest update:
that one will simply ignore corrupt or empty cnfgtr.trn files.
I hope this helps,
Michaël Kummert
