xspec with yt python
by Eric Hallman Aug. 24, 2012

Aug. 24, 2012

Hello, I know this is not a yt specific issue, however it involves an interaction of the yt installed python and XSPEC. Maybe some of you on this list have done an XSPEC install on Mac OS X (Lion in this case) and run into this. At link time during the build of XSPEC, it gives the following error: Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64: "_environ", referenced from: _initposix in libpython2.7.a(posixmodule.o) ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64 Originally on my Mac, … [View More]

Editing my own fork
by Carolyn Peruta Aug. 22, 2012

Aug. 22, 2012

Hello all, I'm taking my first stab at editing my own fork of yt-dev and need some help. I'm trying to add several more species to the list in frontends/enzo/fields.py which act exactly like the fields already there. I've edited the code to add these new fields then ran "python setup.py develop" from the yt-hg directory. When I did this I never saw a message about compiling/building this edited file. When I load a data set it still treats my fields as 'unknown'. 1) Are there any other … [View More]

How to fix "yt update"
by Matthew Turk Aug. 19, 2012

Aug. 19, 2012

Hi all, Recently bitbucket has been having issues with DNS for custom domain names. If you have trouble running "yt update", you can fix this by editing the file: $YT_DEST/src/yt-hg/.hg/hgrc and replacing the line: default = http://hg.yt-project.org/yt/ with: default = https://bitbucket.org/yt_analysis/yt/ I've also uploaded a replacement .hgrc, if you want to swap it out: http://paste.yt-project.org/show/2653/ This should fix any issues you may have had with running "yt update" … [View More]

Density/Column density along a ray
by Thomas Robitaille Aug. 19, 2012

Aug. 19, 2012

Hi I'm still relatively new to yt, and I'm trying to figure out a way to extract the density along a ray joining two points. I've managed to make a plot using PlotCollection.add_ray, but I can't figure out how to get the actual data as a Numpy array. Also, I'd ultimately like to compute the cumulative column density along the ray, so I'd like to ensure that the sampling of distances along the ray is very fine to get an accurate column density. Is there a way to do this? Thanks for any help! Cheers, Tom

YT Installation Problem/Resolution
by Matt Malloy Aug. 16, 2012

Aug. 16, 2012

Hello Everyone! I am extremely new to yt, and attempted to install it for the first time this morning. However, when doing so, I encountered a problem with the server which caused the installation to fail (I have attached the segment of the install log which shows the original errors). After contacting Sam Skillman, he kindly suggested altering the following lines in the install script to read https intead of http, which resolved everything: 554 YT_DIR="$PWD/yt-hg/" 555 ( ${… [View More]

axis ticks problem in ProjectionPlot function
by Ji Suoqing Aug. 13, 2012

Aug. 13, 2012

Hi all, I've found a small problem in ProjectionPlot function: in FLASH4 data, I've already set the domain to be, say: xmin=0.0 xmax=1.0 ymin=0.0 ymax=1.0 But when I use ProjectionPlot to plot the figure, the axis ticks become -0.5<x<0.5, -0.5<y<0.5; while in VisIt, the axis ticks are right. Also, in YT if I print out: pf.domain_left_edge & pf.domain_right_edge the domain is correct: 0<x<1, 0<y<1. I've found this in 2d cylindrical case, where x represents for r … [View More]

clump finder
by Latif Aug. 13, 2012

Aug. 13, 2012

Hi Guys, I tried to run clump finder using the sample script available on web and just changed the minimum value of the density. Running on single cpu took too much time. So, it tried to run it in parallel. Yt did not divide the task among cpus properly and just executed the same process on all cpus. In this way, it consumed all the memory available on the machine (128 GB ). Am i doing some thing stupid or there is a problem with yt clump finder? mpirun -np 48 ./clumpfind.py --parallel … [View More]
