MocoCasADiSolver is not available in python

I have just made a new installation of OpenSim 4.4 in Python 3.8 numpy 1.20 environment. On trying to run Moco I get an error:
"std::exception in 'OpenSim::MocoSolution OpenSim::MocoStudy::solve() const': MocoCasADiSolver is not available.
Thrown at MocoCasADiSolver.cpp:448 in solveImpl()"
Comparing GUI installation on the same machine with the OpenSim package inside Python environmen, I cannot help noticing that the latter contains no CasADi dlls unlike the former.
Could you please help to resolve the issue?

Hi, if you are using Conda environment, OpenSim recommends using the conda package:
https://anaconda.org/opensim-org/opensim-moco
https://simtk-confluence.stanford.edu:8 ... +in+Python
You can also try adding these lines at the beginning of your script:
Code: Select all
import os
os.add_dll_directory('<dir/to/bin>')

Thank you for help: I installed opensim-moco in a python38 miniconda environment** and run "os.add_dll_directory..." (I assume that the path to bin folder is the path inside the environment). However, I still get the following:
File c:\Users\...\miniconda3\envs\py38\lib\opensim\__init__.py:7
5 os.add_dll_directory(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)))
6 else:
----> 7 os.add_dll_directory(DLL_PATH)
9 from .simbody import *
10 from .common import *
NameError: name 'DLL_PATH' is not defined
Is there a solution?
**Just to mention -- I do not have the same problem with installing openism without moco in the same environment...

Hi, the issue of DLL_PATH was fixed in the 4.4.1 version, which can be installed by:
Code: Select all
conda install -c opensim-org opensim-moco=4.4.1
Also, make sure that the miniconda paths exist in your environment path, e.g.:
Code: Select all
\miniconda3
\miniconda3\Scripts
\miniconda3\Library\bin
\miniforge3\Library\usr\bin
\miniforge3\Library\mingw-w64\bin
Let me know how it goes.

Thank you -- this version required python 3.9, not 3.8 -- Once the correct environment was created, the installation was painless. Thanks again for your help.

Is there any version of opensim-moco that can be installed on Unix?
