Hello all,

I’am learning to use HB, thus practicing with visualizations I tried with HB Point-In-Time View-Based (v1.4). After I changed boolean togge to true, few seconds later it shows me the following message:
"
Runtime error (PythonException): The recipe failed to run with the following summary:

Scheduled 15 tasks of which:
** 5 ran successfully:*

    • 1 AdjustSky(…)*
    • 1 ComputeViewSplitCount(…)*
    • 1 CreateOctree(…)*
    • 1 CreateRadFolder(…)*
    • 1 GenerateSky(…)*
      ** 1 failed:*
    • 1 SplitView(…)*
      ** 9 were left pending, among these:*
    • 2 were missing external dependencies:*
  •    - 1 PointInTimeViewRayTracing(...)*

  •    - 1 PointInTimeViewRayTracingLoop(...)*
    • 3 had failed dependencies:*
  •    - 1 MergeResults(...)*

  •    - 1 RayTracing(...)*

  •    - 1 _PointInTimeViewRayTracing_f677f6a5Orchestrator(...)*
    • 2 had missing dependencies:*
  •    - 1 LetPointInTimeViewFly(...)*

  •    - 1 _Main_f677f6a5Orchestrator(...)*
    • 2 was not granted run permission by the scheduler:*
  •    - 1 PointInTimeViewRayTracing(...)*

  •    - 1 PointInTimeViewRayTracingLoop(...)*

This progress looks :frowning: because there were failed tasks

Use the report_out attribute of recipe settings to see a full report.

Traceback:

What is this “1 failed: - 1 SplitView(…)” error and how can I solve it? is this the only ‘fatal’ error?.
Hope you coud give me a handwith this issue so I can get Point-In-Time View-Based images.

Many thanks,
Diego

Hi @diegochile and @ma,

Are you able to share the logs file in the __logs__ folder?

Thank you, @diegochile.

The username on your system has a space which throws an error. If you install the latest version of Ladybug Tools (1.5.0), I believe it should run fine. The easiest way is to use the single-click Pollination Grasshopper installer, which comes with a copy of Ladybug Tools. @chris put in a fix that will enable you to run with whitespace characters in your paths.

Hello,

First, kudos to the LBT team for the 1.5.0 release!

I am experiencing some problems with PIT-VB too. In my case, however, it cannot create the radfolder (please see the log file attached:
logs.log (13.2 KB)
).

I checked for:

  1. blank spaces in the folder’s path (there is none).
  2. and also for permissions. I changed all folders to full permission, but they keep turning back to “read-only”. Could that be the problem? I tried several ways of changing that without success. Should I reinstall LBT?

Any advice is welcome! Thank you, Ticiana

Hi @Ticiana,

It looks like you inserted the view in view_filter_. If you want to filter the views you should insert only the view name. If you only have one view you should not filter the views and you can leave view_filter_ empty.

Thanks for the reply, Mikkel! It was, indeed, a much simpler mistake than I thought. It works now.
