Dear Benjamin,

I’m not really a Windows user, let’s see if anyway I can help you.

I just tried installing the latest binary package (which is not very recent) of ALPS and Vistrails in 64bit version. All seems to work for me.
In the specific I installed the packages:
1. alps-2.2.b3-win64.exe
2. vistrails-x64-setup-2.1.5-4fe986148829.zip
3. alps-vistrails-2.2.b3-win64.exe

Note that the sequence is important, i.e. alps-vistrails has to be installed after vistrails, such that it can install the ALPS module.


For further help I should ask you to write to the ALPS mailing list, you might find some Windows users that can help you directly.

Dear Michele,
I am trying to use the MPS-Algorithm you implemented in ALPS.
Using the 32bit Version of Vistrails(V2.1.2) with the 64bit newest
binary of ALPS(2.2.b3-win64) I can use the mps_optim algorithm. When I
try it with the 64bit version of Vistrails(V2.1.2-win64) the program
stops after writing the parameter xml files. I just tried it on the
first mps tutorial with the spin_one_half.py.
Is there a way to get this working? Because I need the 64bit version for
the systems I want to investigate.

Kind regards
Benjamin Mille
