Display Diagrams Not Working
Hello,
I am trying to generate a process in MadGraph. After I generate it, I want to display diagrams. However, I get this error:
Total: 4 processes with 4 diagrams

I then need to ctrl+c to finish the error or then it just gets hung up. How can I fix it. I do I have XMing and I click on it before displaying the diagrams but I still get the error. Here is how my MadGraph is configured:

Also,
Is it possible to get the mg5_configuration text for Madgraph version 2.6.6
I was fixing some of my preferences on it and I am not sure if I created a bug while looking around the .txt file because now I am not able to display graphs.
Hi,
We do not officially support MG. I would like to support it but I'm still waiting that the university answer my request for the license...
So I;m afraid that I'm not able to help in this case.
Concerning the mg5_configurati
But you can file the default content here:

Do you know where I could get my question answered? I am not sure if it is the way I installed MadGraph with python 3.7 or python 2.7?

I thought I was asking a question under MadGraph. I have also been seeing questions on MadGraph here. I am not quite sure where I should ask my question
For the windows, you can only hope that some other faced the same error and know how to fix it.
But the users running on windows are typically phd student at the begining for their Phd with not that much experience.
For your second question, MG5aMC is currently only compatible with python2.7 (compatibility with 3.7 should be release around the beginning of next year).
Cheers,
Olivier
Sorry.
I answer too fast the first question.
I meant that we do not support Windows (we do indeed support MG5aMC on Mac/Linux)
Cheers,
Olivier

Can you help with this problem?
Provide an answer of your own, or ask User New for more information if necessary.
