Emitted message:

Cannot copy file or file does not exist

Description:​

This error indicates that the gridmo Engine was unable to copy a file. This is typically caused by one of two issues:

  1. The source file does not exist at the specified path.
  2. The gridmo Engine does not have the necessary permissions to read the source file or write to the destination directory.
danger

This error will cause the simulation to fail as a required file could not be accessed or moved to the correct location for the simulation.

Possible impact:​

  • The simulation will fail to start or will terminate prematurely.

Potential fixes:​

To resolve this error, please check the following:

  • Verify file path: Ensure that the file path specified in your project is correct and that the file exists at that location. Check for any typos in the file name or directory path.
  • Check file permissions: Make sure that the user account running the gridmo Engine has read permissions for the source file and its directory (i.e. the Inputs folder), and write permissions for the destination directory (i.e. the Outputs folder).
  • File in use: The file may be locked by another program. Ensure that the file is not open in another application.
