I agree with Shantenu, you shouldn't have to debug these issues.
Just send them to the list where there are a lot of people who can
provide answers.<br>
<br>
In this particular case, I think the error message is badly
formatted. The command wants to be issued from inside the Cactus
directory. It looks like there used to be a more useful error
message in simlib.py in the GetDirSuffix routine, but it was
commented out. I'm not sure why. Should we put it back?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
