OpenSim and Matlab coordination errors

[Julie Dillon]

Hi,

I am currently attempting to run the CMC function of OpenSim using a matlab script (attached).

I am getting the following error:

"setupFileName =
setupCMC_run2_relative_temp.xml

command1 =
cmc -S setupCMC_run2_relative_temp.xml

'cmc' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file."

I've checked and made sure that the environmental variables are set up correctly and the paths are correct. I am not sure how to troubleshoot the software to make the 'cmc' recognized as a command.

Please let me know if you are able to help.

Thanks!

Hi Julie-

Does your user profile have administration privileges?

Sorry, are you running this command through matlab?

command1 = cmc -S setupCMC_run2_relative_temp.xml

This is a command for cmd, not for matlab. If you want to run cmc command line in matlab you need to to do something like

Code: Select all

 system( 'cmc -S setupCMC_run2_relative_temp.xml')

No, I'm not trying to put that into matlab, that is the output response.

In the matlab attachment, i have:

"
setupFileName = 'setupCMC_run2_relative_temp.xml'
command1 = ['cmc -S ', setupFileName]
system(command1);
"

i'm not sure why this is not working.

James,

Thank you for your help!

The problem was actually in the environment variables in my computer. The path to the directory was incorrect. Again thank you for your help.

Those environment variables! They are troublesome.

Glad you found a solution, thanks for posting it!
