interrupted with error: KeyError : 'scale_upp'

Asked by Sylvie Braibant

Dear Madgraph authors,

I would like to generate HH events using the reweighting techniche for NLO.
When I tried to simulate 100000 events, the generation quits with the error
KeyError : 'scale_upp'.
I tired to lower the number of events per job per still does not work.
Thanks for any help.
Sylvie

Command "launch -p --name=run100k -f" interrupted with error:
KeyError : 'scale_upp'

Hi,

The version of the code that you are using is about two years old.
I guess that such bug was solved at least 20 month ago (probably in 2.3.0)
And that part of the code has been deeply restructured 5 month ago.
So the only advise, that I can give to you is to update your code to the latest version.

Cheers,

Olivier
