Hi Austen,

Can you pack your parm2a.task*.out.xml files into a tar file and send it to us so that we can take a look?

An elementary question from a beginner user...

I can't get the simplest plot file examples given in the ToolsHOWTO or Tutorial:ClassicalMCSimulations to work.

While extracttext, extractxmgr and direct evaluation using xsltproc all work without complaining , no points are extracted e.g. from the task files produced by the one-dimensional Heisenberg simulation in Tutorial:ClassicalMCSimulations.

Thus although the plots produced by

extractxmgr plot.xml parm2a.task*.out.xml > result.xmgr

are correctly labeled, there are no points. Any ideas?

- No, there are no error messages. - I'm using libxslt - It's ALPS 1.2.2

The xmgr file produced by extractxmgr has the correct title and axes, but no points (attached)

I guess it must be something with my XSLT processor.

OK problem solved,

The problem was that there are TWO versions of archive2plot.xml on my machine. One is in ALPS/lib/xml, the other in ALPS/tool. They differ in that one calls ExtractDataFromArchive (correctly), and the other ExtractValuesFromSimulation, the source of the problem.

I have no idea why that is

I did try installing later versions, as I wrote earlier. I've just noticed however, that while I thought I had libxslt 1.1.11 originally before updating to 1.1.17, the preinstalled version on my machine was in fact 1.1.17. I don't know why that is, as I thought Tiger came with 1.1.11. Perhaps I downloaded it as an update at some point.

In any case, I guess it's probably worth reverting to 1.1.11.
