trying pygcam with GCAM6: error while init confg file

[amnmalik]

Hi Richard, I know the readme file says that you haven't tested pygcam with GCAM 6.0 but I thought to have a go at it anyway. I successfully installed pygcam as explained nicely in your docs, however when I try to initialize the configuration file, I get the following error:

Error: A JNI error has occurred, please check your installation and try again Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: joptsimple/OptionException at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredMethods0(Native Method) at java.lang.Class.privateGetDeclaredMethods(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Class.privateGetMethodRecursive(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Class.getMethod0(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Class.getMethod(Unknown Source) at sun.launcher.LauncherHelper.validateMainClass(Unknown Source) at sun.launcher.LauncherHelper.checkAndLoadMain(Unknown Source) Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: joptsimple.OptionException at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) ... 7 more gt failed: Cannot get java home dir: Command 'java -cp "C:/Users/Aman/GCAM/gcam-v5.1.3/libs/jars/*;C:/Users/Aman/GCAM/gcam-v5.1.3/output/modelinterface/ModelInterface.jar;XMLDBDriver.jar" XMLDBDriver --print-java-home' returned non-zero exit status 1.

Could you help in addressing this issue? Thanks in advance!

It looks like the class path is looking in C:/Users/Aman/GCAM/gcam-v5.1.3 rather than in the 6.0 directory. Did you use the command-line argument -g / --gcamDir on the "init" command to set the location of the 6.0 distribution?
