I'v installed CS-6.0.5 on the Linux subsystem of Windows10
I'm trying to create a new study. Then there goes the error message:
csrun create -s test -c case1

Can anyone teach me how to solve this problem?
What is the problem: Permission Denied ?

Hello,
I'm not very expert at this, but you check the following command (sudo) to check if the error is due to user permissions or not:

Re: What is the problem: Permission Denied ?
Thanks for the suggesstion. However,
sudo /mnt/e/Program_Files_Linux/code-saturne-install/CS-6.0.5/code_saturne-6.0.5/arch/Linux_x86_64/bin/code_saturne create -s test -c case1
still shows "Permission Denied"
sudo /mnt/e/Program_Files_Linux/code-saturne-install/CS-6.0.5/code_saturne-6.0.5/arch/Linux_x86_64/bin/code_saturne create -s test -c case1
still shows "Permission Denied"

Re: What is the problem: Permission Denied ?
Hello,
You should not need to run an application like code_saturne in sudo/root mode anyways.
I have only run a few tests unde the Windows subsystem for Linux, but have observed some quirks/fragilty in the Python scripts.
Are you running the code from a directory in the shared portion of the WSL (visible from Windows) or only in the part visible from the WSL ? How about the code_saturne install ?
SRC/REFERENCE is a directory in the new case being created, so if if fails in the portion visible from Windows, you may try in the WSL-only part (though is is not very satisfactory fo usage, it can help to understand what i wrong).
Also, are the other files and directories of the case such as DATA, SRC, RESU created correctly before this fails ?
Whitespace in directory names should be ok, but you might test without them, just in case. Accents in directory names might still be a problem for some mappings, so if you have whitespace or special characters in the directory you are running from, you might try without that.
Best regards,
Yvan

Re: What is the problem: Permission Denied ?
Hello Yvan,
In the previous failed run,
the error occurs before the directories RESU and SCRIPTS are created ( DATA is successfully created).
And there is NO whitespace in the directory names
I've installed code_saturne in the shared portion of the WSL, i.e., in /mnt/e/Program_Files_Linux/code-saturne-install/...
Follow your advice, I run the code again, without sudo, in the part ONLY visible from the WSL, i.e., in /home/...
This time it shows NO problem!
But I'm still wondering if it is possible to run in the shared portion of the WSL, i.e., in directories /mnt/...
Best regards,
Qing

Re: What is the problem: Permission Denied ?
Hello,
Did you try running with the installation in the WSL-only portion and the case in the portieon visible by Windows ?
Is this WLS or WSL2 ?
In any case, it should be possible to run in the part visible from Windows, so if it fails, we may need to fix a bug. It looks like the Python recursive copy does not work well on WSL in your case. That could be considered a Python bug, and might be fixed on other Python versions, but otherwise, we could probably adapt the scrips to use other functions than "shutil.copytree". to work around this bug.

Yvan

Re: What is the problem: Permission Denied ?
Hello Yvan,
I use WSL2
I've run more tests, and I think it should be the python 'shutil' problem.
First, I've checked that when the 'Permission Denied' appears,
the files in /.../usr/ have already been copied to directory SRC/REFERENCE
Second, I've tried to copy the files [DATA, RESU, SCRIPTS, SRC ] successfully created in directory /home/test/case1...
to the /mnt/test/case1..., then RUN code_saturne, and it succeeded and showed no problem.
So, the problem should be simply in the stage of creating the CASE directories and files

Qing
