AttributeError : 'ParamCard' object has no attribute 'update_dependent'

Asked by Luigi Delle Rose

Dear MadGraph developers,

I am trying to use aMC_SusHi 2.4.3 with MadGraph 2.60.
I successfully installed aMC_SusHi together with FeynHiggs 2.13.0 and SusHi 1.6.1
but when I try to generate events I got this error

Command "launch " interrupted with error:
AttributeError : 'ParamCard' object has no attribute 'update_dependent'
Please report this bug on https://bugs.launchpad.net/mg5amcnlo
More information is found in '/Users/luigi/MG5_aMC_v2_6_0/ggH-SusHi/run_01_tag_1_debug.log'.

with every param_card provided in the aMC_SusHi package.

Below I attach the content of the log file.

Thanks,
Luigi

Hi,

I send a mail to the author of aMCShushi, since this should be on their side.

Dear Luigi,

we tried to make that clear with the download on the aMCSusHi homepage:

https://cp3.irmp.ucl.ac.be/projects/madgraph/wiki/aMCSushi

You can not run aMCSusHi with any other MG5_aMC version. For each aMCSusHi version there is only one MG5_aMC version with which it has been tested to fully work. (I will add another disclaimer on the homepage)

Thus, to run NMSSM you have to download aMCSusHi_v2.3.3.tar​ and install it in MG5_aMC_v2.3.3 or aMCSusHi_v2.4.3.tar​ and install it in MG5_aMC_v2.4.3. We are working on a general implementation, but this will take some time.

Regarding versions of SusHi and FeynHiggs, usually also the newest versions should work without problems (in particular because SusHi should be backward compatible), however, the last ones I tested with in detail with aMCSusHi were SusHi 1.4.0 (1.4.1, also 1.5.0 was tested at some point) with FeynHiggs 2.10.2.

The compilation issue you get is certainly related to the mismatch of aMCSusHi and MG5_aMC versions, which is why I would try fixing this first and then worry about SusHi and FeynHiggs versions.

Cheers,
Marius

Thanks Marius Wiesemann, that solved my question.

Dear Marius,

I didn't realise that the aMCSusHi version corresponded to the MG5_aMC one.
The problem is fixed.

Thanks a lot,
Luigi
