Hi Matthew,

I tried both running it from a script and interactively (with iyt). I really only used a minimum of code:
from yt.mods import *
pf = EnzoStaticOutput("RD0007/RedshiftOutput0007")
#I also tried: pf = load("RD0007/RedshiftOutput0007")
SlicePlot(pf, 'y', 'Density').save()
Sample data to run this on can be found on
http://lca.ucsd.edu/software/enzo/data/cookbook/
Just download and unpack any of the RD000* folders, for instance RD0007 for the example code above.

On the screen, after the SlicePlot command it says
yt : [INFO     ] 2013-04-18 12:16:59,830 Getting the binary hierarchy
yt : [INFO     ] 2013-04-18 12:16:59,838 Finished with binary hierarchy reading
and there it hangs. Pressing Ctrl-C doesn't do anything, I have to kill the process manually from another terminal.

I installed yt using the installation script from the website, I don't think I changed any of the settings, or anything after the installation. The only thing I did before installing was "export CC=icc" to get HDF5 to install properly.

Thank you very much!

Cheers,
Caroline

Hi Caroline,

Thanks for writing, and sorry that it's not working.  Don't worry too
much about sending the data.  I'm sorry to hear that it's hanging and
not responding, which isn't behavior we have often seen.  Here are a
couple questions that will help us figure out how things might have
gone wrong.

 * Did you run this via a script that you wrote?  If you, could you
run the command:

yt pastebin that_script.py

where "that_script.py" is the filename?  That will give a URL, which
you can include in a reply so we can see it.

 * What output do you see on screen up to the point where the execution hangs?
 * How did you install yt?
 * Is there one particular piece of sample data that we can run the
script you paste'd (above) on to see the behavior?
 * Have you made any changes to your installation -- for instance, to
your matplotlib installation?
 * When it's hung, if you press Ctrl-C so that execution terminates,
what is output to the screen?  It should look like a traceback, where
various functions and routines are listed in order and at the bottom
it will say something like "KeyboardInterrupt"

Thanks very much, and let's see if we can get this working for you.  :)

Hi Nathan,

I used the Enzo code (version 2.2) and was just running some of the included
test problems. There is some example data available at
http://lca.ucsd.edu/software/enzo/data/cookbook/ (I believe this is from an
earlier version of Enzo), the plotting of which also results in the
described problem. This is the first time I'm using yt.

Thanks,
Caroline

Hi Caroline,

Sorry to hear you're having trouble.

Can you let us know what code generated the dataset you're trying to plot?
Have you been able to visualize data produced by this code in the past?

If you feel comfortable sharing your data and if it is small enough to be
hosted on the web somewhere, it would be great if you could upload your
dataset and either reply with a link to the list or send it to me privately
so that one of us could try to take a look and see what exactly is going
wrong.  I understand that datasets can sometimes be sensitive, however it
can be slow and difficult to debug problems like this over e-mail.

Cheers,

Nathan

Dear yt users,

I have a problem when trying to make a SlicePlot along the y-axis of any
data, for any field. yt just hangs and no plot is created. For the x- and
z-axes everything works fine, and a ProjectionPlot along the y-axis is also
not a problem.
I have tried updating yt and installing the current development version,
but to no avail.

Any help is much appreciated!

Best regards,
Caroline
