The GYRE Forums

Hi Rich/anyone,

I ran into trouble running the standard tests on my new installation of Gyre 3.0. As requested I am posting my trouble here. Please see the error message below and let me know if you can suggest a solution.

Thanks so much!

Hi Keaton --

(Welcome aboard!)

This is probably because you're using a slightly different SDK than the one I ran the tests with. At some point, I plan to make the code bit-for-bit reproducible (as Bill Paxton recently did with MESA). In the meantime, given that the errors are 1 part in 10^14, I don't think there's too much to worry about!

cheers,

Rich

Thanks Rich!

I wasn't too alarmed, but you did request that I post any failures so I did. Thanks for making this code available!
