<div dir="ltr">Dear ALPS list,<div><br></div><div>I was very excited to see that the new version of ALPS was available for installation via conda! I did the conda installation, and I attempted to run the simple simulation pasted at the bottom of this email (taken from the ALPS webpage). The code started to execute, and the input files were created (<span style="color:rgb(69,69,69);font-family:"helvetica neue";font-size:12px">parm1.in.xml, parm1.task1.in.xml, parm1.task2.in.xml, parm1.task3.in.xml</span>). Then the message "parsing task files ..." was immediately followed by the message "XML tag expected". Each of the four XML input files start with the following two lines:</div><div>
<p class="gmail-p1"><?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?></p>
<p class="gmail-p1"><?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="ALPS.xsl"?></p></div>
<div>I'm sure that there must be a very simple cause for this problem. Can anyone diagnose this for me?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks!</div><div>Larry</div><div><br></div><div>CODE:</div><div><br></div><div>
