Dear all,


I'm having trouble installing ALPS and VisTrails on Win7. Here is a detailed list of what I did and what didn't work:


Installed VisTrails 2.2.4 from
 https://www.vistrails.org/index.php/Downloads

Installed ALPS2.2b3 binary from
http://alps.comp-phys.org/mediawiki/index.php/Download_and_install_ALPS_2

Installed ALPS-vistrails-2.2.b3 binary from
http://alps.comp-phys.org/mediawiki/index.php/Download_and_install_ALPS_2

Added ALPS to environment variables from control panel (it wasn’t possible to do it directly during installation, the installer complained about the "path being too long") as :
Variable Name: ALPS
Variable value: C:\Program Files\ALPS\bin

Opened C:\Program Files\ALPS\tutorials\intro-01-basics with vistrails

The program seems to initialize correctly, then I get:

Critical error: error changing version 

(I get this message twice)

The full error message reads:

 

InvalidPipeline: Pipeline has errors. Please see the detailed message for more information.
Missing package: org.comp-phys.alps

 

If, within vistrails, I try to enable ALPS from preferences/packages, get:

Initialization of package “ALPS” failed.

The full error message reads:

 

InitializationFailed: Package 'ALPS' failed to initialize because of the following exceptions:
