When upgrading Radiance to the latest release v5.0.a.12, the evalglare.exe is upgraded, too, to v.1.31 which causes the following error using the Honeybee glare analysis component to read the HDR image:
Does anybody encounter the same issue?
Using Radiance v5.0.a.11 which includes Evalglare v.1.17 seems fine.
Thanks!
Noted with many thanks, Mostapha!
Ji,
This might be an issue with the installer: http://www.radiance-online.org/pipermail/radiance-dev/2016-October/…
I will keep you posted.
noted with many thanks, Mostapha!
Hope NREL will fix this problem soon.
having the same issue 
Hi guys,
I just saw this post - there was a problem with the compiler used by NREL with evalglare in the v5.0a11.
You should have contacted me directly - I always have running and tested versions for evalglare for linux, mac and windows here at epfl internally.
If you download the new 5.1 Radiance package, this issue should be fixed. Please don’t use the older versions of evalglare (versions <1.31) any more. Besides new evaluation features, I included a lot of new safety features as well preventing from wrong usage. And as bonus, evalglare is around 10 faster now.
Thanks Jan! We should have. I will update the installation instruction to Radiance 5.1 as soon as Rob fixes the issue with the rvu on Windows.
Thank you very much, Jan! will try the upgraded and super charged evalglare ASAP.
Hello @mostapha @Grasshope;
After reading related discussions to the Evalglare issue, I tried possible solutions like installing Radiance 5.1 and updating Honeybee. None of them worked for me and do not know how to solve it.
Thanks
Hi Elif, can you share a simplifed file that reproduces the error you encounter? I’ll take a look and see if there is anything I can help.
Meanwhile, have you checked if the evalglare.exe file is indeed installed in the bin folder as indicated in the error message?
