Hello everyone,

I wanted to install Smile64 v6.8. The first time I did it, I accidently put wrong info about who to register it to.

When you deinstall and install again, and put the correct info (Name, Insitution, Key), Smile still thinks the program is registered to the name that I put during the first installation, and tells me "Warning: This product has expired", so I guess it is unable to overwrite the registry when you re-install it. I searched the registry and the AppData and deleted everything belonging to Smile there, but it doesn't work.

Hi,

We built a model Simile 6.9 (windows version).

We are now trying to load it with R in Linux, but we cannot. Here is what we did:

1. We openned the model first in Linux (with Simile 6.9 as well), and exported the binary (a .so file).
2. We installed the "Simile" package in R (version 1.3.3) and we tried to load our model with:

require("Simile")

exec.extn <- as.character(tcl("info","sharedlibextension"))

path.to.installation <- "/usr/lib64/simile-6.9"

use.simile.at(path.to.installation)

If you have a set of models saved separately, and you want to put them all together in a single file, there are two ways you can do it:

HI,

I have a working Simile 6.9 running under Fedora 28 (specs at: this other post). The spiro example works fine, under Simile and under R.

I am working now with a project that reads a few xlsx files, that works fine under Windows, but the Fedora 28 install yields the following error:

This system does not appear to have an ODBC driver available for files with the extension ".xlsx".

Do you know how to overcome this ?

Hi,

I would like to know if you have a "perfect" list of Linux distro and R version that works fine.

We are trying Fedora 28 and after adding tk tables simile 6.9 works

but we get a tcl related error when we load the Simile package in R.

Hallo everybody,
we are using windows 7pro  in our computer pool. Is there a way to install simile (Teaching Edition licence) on multiple computers in unattended mode? Are there any switches for installation?
Thanks a lot. Martin

I am trying to interact with a Simile model from R. I installed the simile package. When I run 
use.simile.at(path.to.installation), I get the following error:

Error in structure(.External(.C_dotTclObjv, objv), class = "tclObj") : 
  [tcl] can't find package Trf.

I am running R version 3.1.1 on a Mac with OSX Yosemite 10.10.2. 

What do I need to do to fix this?

Thanks.

Is Simile 6.2 compatible with Windows XP?

I used to install the Evaluation edition in the computer rooms for my teaching (it worked well with v6.0), but the application quits with a long error message...

Any hint?

Fedora seem to have dropped the Tktable package that is required by Simile.

You have to get it from here (the Enterprise extensions) and install it locally:

http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/tktable-2.9-13.el6.x86_64.rpm

(Replace x86_64 with your architecture if that is different)

Windows users benefit from being able to download a pre-compiled binary distribution of the parameter estimation tool PEST. However, Linux users have to compile it themselves, since the popular Linux distributions do not provide it as a package. Although the instructions for doing this are pretty clear, the procedure fails with many recent Fortran compilers including gfortran, due to new restrictions on program structure.

You will see a series of error messages something like this:
