[CIG-SHORT] Pylith installation problems

[Brad Aagaard]

Jenn,

Are you trying to run the setup.sh script directly? You should be trying 
to run "source setup.sh".

If you have Python installed from Anaconda, HomeBrew, and MacPorts, then 
before running source setup.sh reset your environment:
brad at guest:pylith-2.2.0-darwin-10.11.6 > cd pylith-2.2.0-darwin-10.11.6
brad at guest:pylith-2.2.0-darwin-10.11.6 > unset PYTHONPATH
brad at guest:pylith-2.2.0-darwin-10.11.6 > PATH=/bin:/usr/bin
brad at guest:pylith-2.2.0-darwin-10.11.6 > ls
bin/           include/       lib/           parametersgui/ setup.sh 
   share/         src/
brad at guest:pylith-2.2.0-darwin-10.11.6 > source setup.sh
Ready to run PyLith.

Now go the examples/3d/hex8 directory and try to run step01.cfg:

brad at guest:pylith-2.2.0-darwin-10.11.6 > cd src/pylith-2.2.0
brad at guest:pylith-2.2.0-darwin-10.11.6 > cd examples/3d/hex8
brad at guest:pylith-2.2.0-darwin-10.11.6 > pylith step01.cfg
  >> 
/Volumes/Users/baagaard/tmp/pylith/pylith-2.2.0-darwin-10.11.6/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pylith/utils/PetscManager.py:64:initialize
  -- petsc(info)
  -- Initialized PETSc.
  >> 
/Volumes/Users/baagaard/tmp/pylith/pylith-2.2.0-darwin-10.11.6/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pylith/apps/PyLithApp.py:103:main
  -- pylithapp(info)
  -- Running on 1 process(es).
-- LOTS OF OUTPUT --

Regards,
Brad
