PEST runs and Error are NOT shown in MODFLOW/PEST Windows

[speedy 0]

Hello everybody

I encounter this problem from time to time with the latest version of GMS (10.3). When I run PEST parameter estimation, the runs are not shown in the MODFLOW/PEST window, despite pest is running and I can see the PEST files being updated. I am not sure why this problem occur?

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks

I have seen this. I think I solved the issue by changing my pilot points' values.

Hi Fahad

I did not alter pilot points. Also when I take the model files and run GMS on a different computer I do not have this problem!

Hi Speedy

I seen this problem. Change the name of the project and do not use numbers or points. Maybe solved.

Hi Mina

I did change the name of the project as you advised to no avail. It seems it is a bug in GMS!

Interesting... It probably is a bug. But I have just experienced this issue once.

When you run PEST on the computer with the problem can you see if another program is running: tail.exe? This program is used to see the text being written to the pest output file. I am assuming that there is something wrong with that program on your computer. I am not 100% percent sure this is the problem but it is worth checking.
