Facing Error during Installation

[Hariharasudhan N]

Hello Everyone,

I have just now started using OpenSim 4.4. I am facing a problem with the command "(opensim_scripting) $ python -m pip install ."
I don't know why this command is not successful while running in the Mac terminal. I have installed Anaconda and followed the mentioned commands on the website.

Could someone please help me how to resolve this issue? I have also attached the screenshot of the error from the terminal.

There are now conda packages for OpenSim, which is an easier way to get a scripting environment working in Python with OpenSim. More details can be found at the documentation page here: https://simtk-confluence.stanford.edu:8 ... da+Package

Additional information can also be found here: https://anaconda.org/opensim-org/opensim

But when I try to use the given command that is, conda install -c opensim-org opensim, I was getting "can't able to find the package" and when I try to search the channels using, conda search -c opensim-org, which is used to view the packages, I wasn't able to find any package named opensim... again I have attached the related screenshots.

I have tried updating conda, but still can able to solve this. what can I do to resolve this?

Hello,

Based on the names of the packages that Conda is trying to locate in your screen capture, it appears that your environment is arm64 rather than x86_64. We do not have M1 (arm_64) based conda package, though we may try to publish one in the future. Your options are to use python/conda in x86_64 environment and then the opensim package will be found, or to use a jupyter notebook (with linux backend) and then the problem will be fixed.

Hope this helps,
