Error running Peacock

[ajyano22]

Hello,

I'm pretty new to Moose and Linux in general, I think I have everything set up correctly but I'm still getting errors when trying to run a simulation through peacock. This is the error:
moose) [aliyay@aliya-hpspectrex360convertible15ch0xx peacock]$ ./peacock

This says the issue is the permissions but when I check them, it says I should be able to execute these files.

I'm not sure what the issue is. Any help is appreciated.

You have not compiled your code: "No executable found for method type(s): opt, dbg, oprof, devel". If you are new I suggest working through out tutorial. https://mooseframework.inl.gov/getting_started/examples_and_tutorials/tutorial01_app_development/index.html

The error lies in line right after you executed peacock:

No executable found for method type(s): opt, dbg, oprof, devel

While you may have built modules, or the the combined module in particular, Peackock does not know how to search that direction. Peacock will search for binaries at your current working directory, and work 'backwards' (parent directory):

/home/aliyay/projects/moose/python/peacock
  nope. Go up one directory.
/home/aliyay/projects/moose/python
  nope. Go up one directory.
/home/aliyay/projects/moose
  nope. Go up one directory. Woops. We hit the root directory, tell the user:
`No executable found for method type(s): opt, dbg, oprof, devel`

What you need to do, is build the combined module, and then run peacock from either that location, or from the location of your chosen input file (because combined-opt will exist in a parent directory from that location):

cd /home/aliyay/projects/moose/modules/combined
make     # if you haven't done so already
cd /home/aliyay/projects/moose/modules/combined/practice/workshop2
/home/aliyay/projects/moose/python/peacock/pecock -i model_A_equilibrium.i

That's a lot of paths... Which is why we suggest created a PATH to Peacock so that you can just execute peacock no matter where you are along the file system:

export PATH=/home/aliyay/projects/moose/python/peaock:$PATH
cd /home/aliyay/projects/moose/modules/combined/practice/workshop2
peacock

(of course, the same applies: you must have a binary built somewhere in your parent directories).

I would also suggest throwing that export PATH=/home/aliyay/projects/moose/python/peaock:$PATH in your bash profile, so it is always set.
