About MadAnalysis
Hi there,
I am using MadGraph aMC@NLO. When I finish running my process, I want to do some data analysis using MadAnalysis5.
In the paper arXiv:1206.1599v2 and other tutorials, they ask to go to the MadAnalysis directory and to launch it you just have to use the command bin/ma5
It doesn't work for me. Instead I get this error message: -bash: /bin/ma: No such file or directory
Any suggestions?
Cheers,
Amine

Hi,
Looks like you forget to write the 5.
If this is that or not, I redirect this thread to the madanalysis5 team, who might be more expert than us to solve your problem.
Cheers,
Olivier

Hi Olivier,
Indeed, but it was just in the example I used to ask the question. But the problem is still there
$ bin/ma5
-bash: bin/ma5: No such file or directory
Thank you,
Cheers,
Amine

Hi Amine,

Hi Benjamin,
This is what I got:
ls -l bin
total 12
-rwxr-xr-x 1 abenaich cms 1263 févr. 10 03:55 mg5
-rwxr-xr-x 1 abenaich cms 5841 févr. 10 03:55 mg5_aMC
It seems that there is no MadAnalysis in bin file!!
But I still need to use MadAnalysis.
Cheers,
Amine

Dear Amine,
In order to run MadAnalysis5, you need to install it first. You can download it from here:

Hi Benjamin,
I though I installed it via MadGraph prompt.
I will install it deparately and I hope I can use it to analyse MadGraph results.

Dear Benjamin,
I downloaded MadAnalysis5. Then un tar it.
What I found in the directory madanalysis5 is: bin COPYING madanalysis README tools version.txt
I couldn't ./configure it and install it on my system.

Dear Amine,
Please have a look to our wiki page and to the manual (https:/
./bin/ma5
and you do not have to configure anything.

Benjamin

Dear Benjamin,
When I install MadAnalysis from MG prompt, the plot_card.dat appears.
But when I install MadAnalysis5 separately, plot_card.dat disappears.
when I type ./bin/ma5 I get this everytime:
.......

How many cores for the compiling? default = max = 4
Answer:
.......
I have 4 cores so I answer 4, it compiles MA then I get the prompt.
I import an *.lhe.gz file, I type: plot MET and it doesn't plot anything.
So in summary:
When I install MadAnalysis from MadGraph prompt, I found MadAnalysis installed and not MadAnalysis5, and I get plot_card.dat. and in MadAnalysis directory when I type ./bin/ma or ./bin/ma5 I get "bash: bin/ma: No such file or directory"
When I download MadAnalysis5, untar it, I type ./bin/ma5 I get the message above and I have to compile it but when I do that MadAnalysis doesn't work, and worse, I loose plot_card.dat.

Dear Amine,
You are confused between madanalysis 4 (installed from MG) and 5 (installed separately). In order to run madanalysis 5, please have a look either to the manual or to same of the talks that we gave at schools (for instance here: https:/

Benjamin
