Path error: python version of LHAPDF

Asked by Raghad Badawi

I ran this code: launch MY_FIRST_MG5_RUN
I set shower = Pythia8 and analysis = MadAnalysis5, then 0, then another 0.
I got this error:

And then it runs pythia8's computations, then opens a browser window without the option to view the plots and histograms.

Please note that I am using Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, and MG5_aMC_v3_5_3.

Can you help me with this?
Please note that I am new to this.
Many thanks.

Yes on Ubutu, it seems that they are a protection over the modification of LD_LIBRARY_PATH and therefore we can not add lhapdf to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH for you. So you have to do it (in your favourite way) as said in the log you have to include in the list of path:
 /home/raghad/Downloads/MG5_aMC_v3_5_3/HEPTools/lhapdf6_py3//lib

Otherwise, looks like you are missing some requirement for madanalysis5, but we do not track such type of issue in our log
The best is likely to run ma5 manually and check the warning/error message and in case report it to their github repo.

Cheers,

Olivier

Hello Oliver, thank you for answering.
I added LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

This :

went away.

But I got this instead:

On that likely not,
The best is to look at the file
/home/raghad/Downloads/MG5_aMC_v3_5_3/MY_FIRST_MG5_RUN/Events/run_04/tag_1_MA5__reco_BasicReco.log
to see what's going on, if it is not easy to fix then please report to the madanalysis5 team.

Cheers,

Olivier
