genCumulativeSkyMtx error

I think i have connected "path" to "_epwfile" of genCumulativeSkyMtx in a right way (set one file path>.EPW file), it still contained a warning of "Download failed!!! You need GenDayMtx.exe to use this component. Please check your internet connection, and try again!" There's no problem with the internet connection, is there something wrong with "GenDayMtx.exe" ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Hanif, Thank you for the image. It is because how you have set up the user folder which has white spaces and '. You need to manually set workingDir_ to a valid address. Try to create c:\ladybug folder and then use a panel to set workingDir_ to c:\ladybug. It should work fine then.

Hard to say Yana,

Attached a working file with the EPW link you used.

This file has more updated components than those that you are using according to your picture.

Yana, Is this problem solved or do you still have the issue. The error says that there is a special character in your file that can't be read back. It can be system specific. -Mostapha
