Comment (by hinder):

 The same thing happened to me.  I think it is happening whenever there is
 a syntax error in one of the configuration files.  The dprint function
 which is supposed to print the error message is running into a missing
 SimLib instance, possibly because the error is being generated before the
 SimLib has been created (guessing here).  You should be able to
 temporarily work around the problem by adding

 print statement

 to the dprint function (e.g. on line 20 of libutil.py).  This will at
 least print the correct error message to the screen so you can see what is
 going on, until the problem with the error reporting is fixed.
