Error occurs when export new model

Error occurs when export new model

Dear experts,

I was trying to generate events by using one new model.
This model is made by ourselves which aims to generate anomalous triple gauge couplings vertex.

the version I'm using is MG5_aMC_v3.0.0.beta

When I trying to generate events by run ./generate_events, error information will occur when compiling directory and before setting up grids.
But the generation can finished successfully even if with this error information, which means this error information will not affect the generation.

the error information is shown below:
Not able to open file /lustre/collider/liudanning/Generator/Madgraph/MG5_aMC_v3_0_0/NTGC-TEST/crossx.html since no program configured.Please set one in ./input/mg5_configuration.txt
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "write_param_card.py", line 178, in <module>
    ParamCardWriter('./param_card.dat', generic=True)
  File "write_param_card.py", line 29, in __init__
    self.write_card(list_of_parameters)
  File "write_param_card.py", line 89, in write_card
    self.write_dep_param_block(lhablock)
  File "write_param_card.py", line 121, in write_dep_param_block
    exec("%s = %s" % (parameter.name, parameter.value))
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'complexconjugate' is not defined

During the generation, I also use Pythia8 to do the hadronization and Delphes to simulate detector effects.

Thanks in advance.

It seems like this error information is from the model, but the model designer said he didn't change the content in these files

Ok the first thing to check is to do from within the UFO directory
python write_param_card.py

and this should reproduce (if I'm correct) the above error message independently of MG5aMC.
You likely need to update that file in your UFO file.

Cheers,

Olivier

Thanks Olivier Mattelaer, that solved my question.

you are right, "python write_param_card.py " do reproduce the above error message,
I will contact the model designer and try to update that file

Thank you again

Best,
Danning

Hi,
you might also want to try if the error persists in the 3.1.1 version (the latest release)

Best wishes,

Marco

Hi Marco,

Sure, I just checked 3.0.0 and 2.9.3 and I will check 3.1.1 later and give a feedback

Hi all,

I just download version 3.1.1 and got same error information as before.

By the way, I'm contacting the model designer,
hope this problem can be solved.

Best,
Danning
