Can you send your output files? The problem is probably that mu is not just a number. You might also look into using ALPS 2 instead which has much better plotting and evaluation tools.

Dear ALPS community,

    I met a trouble for extracting the calculated results from the

XML output files. My setting is the following:

plot2.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<plot name="Stiffness versus disorder for three-dimesnional HardcoreBoson models">

<legend show="true"/> <xaxis label="Disorder" type="PARAMETER" name="mu"/> <yaxis label="Stiffness" type="SCALAR_AVERAGE"/>

<set label="Inhomogeneous simple cubic lattice"/>

</plot>

and my "input" file is

LATTICE_LIBRARY="lattices.xml"; LATTICE="inhomogeneous simple cubic lattice"; L=5; MODEL_LIBRARY="models.xml"; MODEL="hardcore boson"; t = 1.0; T = 0.1; delta=10.0; SWEEPS=500000; THERMALIZATION=10000; EPSILON=0.25; { DISORDERSEED = 34275; mu=delta*2*(random()-0.5); } { DISORDERSEED = 49802; mu=delta*2*(random()-0.5); } { DISORDERSEED = 82529; mu=delta*2*(random()-0.5); } { DISORDERSEED = 13564; mu=delta*2*(random()-0.5); } { DISORDERSEED = 65897; mu=delta*2*(random()-0.5); }.

When I typed the command "extracttext plot2.xml input.task*.out.xml", the following thing happend:

plot2.xml:4: parser error : XML declaration allowed only at the start of the document

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

^

unable to parse plot2.xml /tmp/archive2plot3652.xsl:1: parser error : Document is empty

^ /tmp/archive2plot3652.xsl:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found

^ cannot parse /tmp/archive2plot3652.xsl /tmp/plot3652:1: parser error : Document is empty

^ /tmp/plot3652:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found

^ unable to parse /tmp/plot3652

I don't know what is going on here, could you help me figure it out? Thank you in advance!

Best, Xiaoquan
