HB Annual daylight simulation_cannot find the results

Hi guys,

I'm trying to learn more and more about the great capabilities of HB an LB. Unfortunately sometimes I remain stuck because of some issues.

Right now I'm having a problem with the Annual daylight simulation component. While for the other simulations I easily change working directory according to the computer path, I cannot do that with this component.

Could someone help me?

Thank you in advance!

Marco

Hi Marco, Do you have Daysim installed on your system? I guess Honeybee can't find daysim on your system. It runs fine on my system.

Interesting! Does Honeybee_Honeybee component turns orange once or is it fine?

It remains grey, like it would works. But then annual results files are empty.

Then can you go to the folder (C:\ladybug\SampleOfficeRoomAnnual\annualSimulation), open both .bat files ("C:\ladybug\SampleOfficeRoomAnnual\annualSimulation\SampleOfficeRoomAnnual_InitDS.bat" and "C:\ladybug\SampleOfficeRoomAnnual\annualSimulation\SampleOfficeRoomAnnual_0_DS.bat") add the word "pause" at the end of the file and run them respectively?

We should be able to see the error then.

Mostapha,

I got this. The I open the Command prompt but the raypath seems correct, even if there is a spelling mistake in the .bat file (rapypath instead of raypath).

What do you suggest?

Thank you,

Marco

Is it possible that the error is due to the Daysim 3.1 release?

Unfortunately, I cannot install Daysim 4.0 on Windows 7 professional 64 bit -strange -

thank you,

Marco

Great! I should have guessed that it was a version issue. Best of luck with your studies.

Installing Daysim 4.0

Hello Marco P,

could you explain how you installed Daysim 4.0 on Win x64? Wenn i run as administrator I see shortly the cmd window. In Control panel I see still only 3.1 version.

As in grasshopper when I run the daylight simulation I am getting the same error: Can´t find the results for the study in Grasshopper.

Any advice is appreciated!

Regards,

Niya
