Re: [AG-TECH] Probs starting VIC&RAT on AGTK3.01 winxp

I would expect to find some conflict like the one you've already sought.

In addition to looking for files like "c:\documents" , have you looked for
a conflict with "c:\documents and settings\jww\application" ? 

The fact that it worked at some point and has stopped makes me suspect
that a conflicting file has appeared in one of these locations.

We'll fix this problem in a future release.  Let me know how things work
out for you so we can be sure to address the problem you're seeing, if
it turns out to be something new.

Thanks,
Tom

Hi there,

One of the machines here has an odd prob starting the vic & rat executables. Example error:

So it looks like python getting confused with the path/arguments or somesuch? I have checked that there isn't a directory called c:\documents which could cause this prob.

I can start (without probs) vic & rat with the correct arguments via command line.

At first I thought it was another application (statistica) installed on the PC which uses the .svc extension for macros - but have uninstalled that without resolution.

AGTK has worked the machine in the past but has stopped working at some point (both agtk 2.4 & 3.01 exhibit the same prob).

Many thanks, Seb
