Hi Andres, I'm not sure if someone already answered this...but in case they didn't here is my guess. This sounds like you may be running on an NFS-mounted disk (i.e., not one on your local computer) and the system was busy and an attempt to write to your disk timed out. If this is the case, then you might expect to have pretty random problems of this sort. One possible solution is to change the time-out value in autobuild: max_wait_time= 1.0 You can specify the length of time (seconds) to wait when looking for a file. If you have a cluster where jobs do not start right away you may need a longer time to wait. The symptom of too short a wait time is 'File not found' The default is 1 second...you could try 10 or 20 and see if that makes the problem go away. All the best, Tom T ________________________________________ From: [email protected] [[email protected]] on behalf of Andres PALENCIA [[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, March 22, 2012 12:59 PM To: PHENIX user mailing list Subject: [phenixbb] error generating output file overal_best pdb Dear Phenix users, I have been running Phenix_Autobuild successfully for the last houra. The program generates the corresponding Autobuild_run_** folders as usually, however I got an error message when the program was trying to generate the overal_best.pdb file after the Autobuild cycle 3. I copy below the error message that I got, thank you in advance for any help: OSError : [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/user/palencia' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/softdist/exp/pxsoft/phenix/v1.7.3-928/redhate4-x86_64/phenix-1.7.3-928/phenix/wxGUI2/Home/Jobs.py", line 170, in OnTimer self.project.refresh_detached_jobs() File "/softdist/exp/pxsoft/phenix/v1.7.3-928/redhate4-x86_64/phenix-1.7.3-928/phenix/wxGUI2/Tracking.py", line 72, in refresh_detached_jobs tmp_dir = self.get_tmp_dir() File "/softdist/exp/pxsoft/phenix/v1.7.3-928/redhate4-x86_64/phenix-1.7.3-928/phenix/phenix/tracking/project.py", line 97, in get_tmp_dir os.makedirs(tmp_dir) File "/softdist/exp/pxsoft/phenix/v1.7.3-928/redhate4-x86_64/phenix-1.7.3-928/build/intel-linux-2.6-x86_64/base/lib/python2.7/os.py", line 150, in makedirs makedirs(head, mode) File "/softdist/exp/pxsoft/phenix/v1.7.3-928/redhate4-x86_64/phenix-1.7.3-928/build/intel-linux-2.6-x86_64/base/lib/python2.7/os.py", line 150, in makedirs makedirs(head, mode) File "/softdist/exp/pxsoft/phenix/v1.7.3-928/redhate4-x86_64/phenix-1.7.3-928/build/intel-linux-2.6-x86_64/base/lib/python2.7/os.py", line 150, in makedirs makedirs(head, mode) File "/softdist/exp/pxsoft/phenix/v1.7.3-928/redhate4-x86_64/phenix-1.7.3-928/build/intel-linux-2.6-x86_64/base/lib/python2.7/os.py", line 150, in makedirs makedirs(head, mode) File "/softdist/exp/pxsoft/phenix/v1.7.3-928/redhate4-x86_64/phenix-1.7.3-928/build/intel-linux-2.6-x86_64/base/lib/python2.7/os.py", line 150, in makedirs makedirs(head, mode) File "/softdist/exp/pxsoft/phenix/v1.7.3-928/redhate4-x86_64/phenix-1.7.3-928/build/intel-linux-2.6-x86_64/base/lib/python2.7/os.py", line 150, in makedirs makedirs(head, mode) File "/softdist/exp/pxsoft/phenix/v1.7.3-928/redhate4-x86_64/phenix-1.7.3-928/build/intel-linux-2.6-x86_64/base/lib/python2.7/os.py", line 157, in makedirs mkdir(name, mode) OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/user/palencia' Platform info: __FILE__ = /net/anaconda/scratch1/phenix/phenix-1.7.3-928/cctbx_project/boost_adaptbx/meta_ext.cpp __DATE__ = Dec 6 2011 __TIME__ = 04:18:10 __x86_64__ __linux __GNUC__ = 3 __GNUC_MINOR__ = 4 __GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__ = 2 boost::python::cxxabi_cxa_demangle_is_broken(): false __GXX_WEAK__ = 1 __LP64__ = 1 __VERSION__ = 3.4.2 20041017 (Red Hat 3.4.2-6.fc3) FE_INEXACT = 32 FE_DIVBYZERO = 4 FE_UNDERFLOW = 16 FE_OVERFLOW = 8 FE_INVALID = 1 FE_ALL_EXCEPT = 61 __SSE2__ = 1 BOOST_LIB_VERSION = 1_48 PY_VERSION = 2.7.2 PYTHON_API_VERSION = 1013 sizeof(bool) = 1 sizeof(short) = 2 sizeof(int) = 4 sizeof(long) = 8 sizeof(std::size_t) = 8 sizeof(void*) = 8 sizeof(long long) = 8 sizeof(float) = 4 sizeof(double) = 8 sizeof(long double) = 16 sizeof(boost::int32_t) = 4 sizeof(boost::uint32_t) = 4 sizeof(wchar_t) = 4 __PTRDIFF_TYPE__ Py_USING_UNICODE sizeof(PY_UNICODE_TYPE) = 2 gnu libc version: 2.5 BOOST_ADAPTBX_TYPE_ID_SIZE_T_EQ_UNSIGNED_LONG os.name: posix sys.platform: linux2 sys.byteorder: little platform.platform(): Linux-2.6.18-238.9.1.el5-x86_64-with-redhat-5.7-Final platform.architecture(): ('64bit', 'ELF') floating_point_exceptions.division_by_zero_trapped: False floating_point_exceptions.invalid_trapped: False floating_point_exceptions.overflow_trapped: False number of processors: 24 Memory total: 25,263,722,496 Memory free: 20,157,317,120 import thread: OK "hello" = ['h', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o'] u"hello" = ['h', '\x00', 'e', '\x00', 'l', '\x00', 'l', '\x00', 'o', '\x00'] u"\u00C5" = ['\xc5', '\x00'] as utf-8 = ['\xc3', '\x85'] LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH RING ABOVE = Ã _______________________________________________ phenixbb mailing list [email protected] http://phenix-online.org/mailman/listinfo/phenixbb
