How to set PYTHIA8?

Asked by Joonbin Lee

Hi,

I want to set PYTHIA8 at MG5_aMC_v2_5_1. So I try as belows. (I download the PYTHIA8 and MG5_aMC_v2_5_1 at my hoem directory which is '/home/joonblee'.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(download pythia8186.tgz)
tar xvfz pythia8186.tgz
cd pythia8186
make
cd ../MG5_aMC_v2_5_1
vi input/mg5_configuration.txt
----------------set pythia8_path like this-----------------
#! Pythia8 path.
#! Defines the path to the pythia8 installation directory (i.e. the
#! on containing the lib, bin and include directories) .
#! If using a relative path, that starts from the mg5 directory
pythia8_path = /home/joonblee/pythia8186
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
:q
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

However, when I start the mg5_aMC, then I get this messages.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Apparently your Pythia8 version is not compatible with the interface-driver
between MG5_aMC Pythia8. Could you:

a) Send me or attach or copy the relevant part of the installation log file
of mg5amc_py8_interface? (Its path should be indicated in the error
message).

b) Try again with the very last version of Pythia8. Notice that you can
also install it automatically with MG5aMC and:
MG5_aMC> install pythia8

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I try

MG5_aMC> install pythia8

and I got an error message like bellow.

A problem occured during the installation of 'mg5amc_py8_interface'.
Content of the installation log file '/home/joonblee/CMSSW_8_0_3_patch1/src/MG5_aMC_v2_5_1/HEPTools/MG5aMC_PY8_interface/mg5amc_py8_interface_install.log':

The version of HEPMC2 linked to Pythia8 seems not to include a static library.
This is necessary for the default compilation of MG5aMC_PY8_interface.
You can try again with the option --pythia8_makefile but HEPMC2 will need to be available at runtime.

Command "install pythia8 " interrupted in sub-command:
"install pythia8" with error:

I attned the log file.

Well, did you try to follow the instructions and specify the option '--pythia8_makefile'?, i.e.

MG5_aMC> install pythia8 --pythia8_makefile

In any case, the simplest would be that you also install a new version of hepmc before trying to install pythia8, with

MG5_aMC> install hepmc

Also, I cannot find the log file attached. You can send it at <email address hidden>

Hi,

Thank you for helps. Your comments are very useful for me. So I follow your comments. First, I install hepmc and install pythia8. However, I got this error message.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
make: *** [MG5aMC_PY8_interface] Error 1

Command "install pythia8 " interrupted in sub-command:
"install pythia8" with error:
InvalidCmd : Installation of mg5amc_py8_interface failed.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

So I try to 'install pythia8 --pythia8_makefile'. However, in this case, I got a message as belows.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Option '--pythia8_makefile' not reckognized.
Command "install pythia8 --pythia8_makefile" interrupted with error:
InvalidCmd : Installation of pythia8 failed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm sorry that I cannot find any log file in this case. Could you help me please?

So both the installation of hepmc and pythia8 was successful good.
Now the installation of the interface failed, you can find the log file of the installation here:

<MG5aMC_installation_dir>/HEPTools/MG5aMC_pythia8_interface/install.log

What was the error during the compilation?

Thanks for your help, again.

1) Please confirm that you have indeed, with MG5aMC, first installed hepmc *and then* pythia8.

2) Also try to compile using the original pythia8 makefile, with

./compile.py ../pythia8 --pythia8_makefile

3)
In any case, what happens is that MG5aMC installs a special version of HEPMC that has an additional function 'push_back' to add *named weights* to the event records (the default version of hepmc doesn't allow for this).

During the compilation of the interface, the precompiler flag '-DHEPMC2HACK' specifies whether you are linking against a HEPMC library that supports has this additional 'push_back' method or doesn't.
Since you have installed hepmc with MG5aMC, it should have this ammendment and it therefore makes sense that '-DHEPMC2HACK' is present in your compilation line.

The problem here seems to be that the compiler is not linking against the correct hepmc library, even though it is specified that

'-L/home/joonblee/CMSSW_8_0_3_patch1/src/MG5_aMC_v2_5_1/HEPTools/MG5aMC_PY8_interface/static_library_dependencies -lHepMC'

Now, what you can do is to check the following (when not using the option '--pythia8_makefile'):

a) Could you check that the soft links in '/home/joonblee/CMSSW_8_0_3_patch1/src/MG5_aMC_v2_5_1/HEPTools/MG5aMC_PY8_interface/static_library_dependencies' indeed points to the libraries installed locally with MG5aMC.

b) The problem may also be that the specification above is placed last, can you try to move '-L/.../HEPTools/MG5aMC_PY8_interface/static_library_dependencies -lHepMC' at the beginning of the compilation line?
The simplest way to do this is to add 'sys.exit(0)' after '(out, err) = p.communicate()' in compile.py so as to prevent clean-up duties to take place and then enter by hand the compilation line, modified as you wish.

Let me know,

Oh,

I find my mistake. I try '> set pythia8_path /home/joonblee/CMSSW_8_0_3_patch1/src/pythia8186' and it works.

Thank you Hirschi.

Well that can't be "the mistake".
Using the CMSSW pythia8 installation does not resolve any of the problem reviewed above.
Indeed, in principle there should be no problem installing these tools locally.
So in order to investigate these problems, you should follow the different steps I laid out in my last message.

Joel Jones (n-jones-j) said : 		#10

Hi,

I am having the same issue, maybe I can give info regarding "the mistake".

I ran "install pythia8". This automatically installed hepmc, and I understand that both hepmc and pythia8 were installed correctly.

However, the program then attempted to install mg5amc_py8_interface, and failed. The message was:

Command "install pythia8 " interrupted in sub-command:
"install pythia8" with error:
InvalidCmd : Installation of mg5amc_py8_interface failed.

Previous to this, I get a lot of output, with the relevant line being:
Makefile_mg5amc_py8_interface_static:8: recipe for target 'MG5aMC_PY8_interface' failed

I tried to follow your previous instructions. I entered:
/home/jjones/Programs/MG5_aMC_v2_5_2/HEPTools/MG5aMC_PY8_interface/static_library_dependencies

In this directory there is only one file (not a link): libHepMC.a

I added "sys.exit(0)" after "(out, err) = p.communicate()" in compile.py (there are two), and then ran "python compile.py /home/jjones/Programs/MG%_aMC_v2_5_2/HEPTools/pythia8/" but nothing happened.

Any help would be appreciated. Cheers,

Joel

If you go inside:

/home/jjones/Programs/MG5_aMC_v2_5_2/HEPTools/MG5aMC_PY8_interface

And, with no prior modifications whatsoever, you try to compile the
interface with:

./compile.py ../pythia8

What is the exact complete log (incl. error message) returned?

The problem Joel has, was solved by adding a line:

#include <cstddef>

in the Pythia8.h and reinstalled Pythia8 in the MG5.
Even though Pythia8 library can be built regardless of "typedef __PTRDIFF_TYPE__ ptrdiff_t" warnings,
it affects finally at the MG5aMC_PY8_interface installation level.

Thank you for your comment,

Many people reported a similar problem and I could reproduce it myself.
Your suggestion does indeed solve the problem, but I found an alternative way to solve it that only involve a change in the MG5aMC_PY8_interface driver, so that it could be fixed without waiting for this fix in the next Pythia8 release.

See details in this post:

You should now therefore be able to install Pythia8 and the MG5_aMC interface to it automatically without any problem anymore.

Excellent. I followed your suggestion, which means editing MGaMC_PY_interface.cc, by swapping:

#include "Pythia8/Pythia.h"
#include "Pythia8Plugins/HepMC2.h"

into

#include "Pythia8Plugins/HepMC2.h"
#include "Pythia8/Pythia.h"

I ran install mg5amc_py8_interface, and it installed, cleanly.

Many thanks!

Great. I have brought this change to the MGaMC_PY_interface.cc file that is automatically downloaded when running the install command in MG5_aMC.
The installation should now work without any problem or special change from the user.
Thanks for your feedback.
