[Mesa-users] need Assistance

[Wafa Gull]

Thank you for both of you.
Actually I want to keep the mesa in its original form so that I can compare my changes to the original one.

This is what I copied my folder in which I am intended to do changes and compiled it .

Now, I am planning to copy whole test_suite folder so that it might not spit that out.

If there is any other way please let me know. How can I do that?

Regards,
Wafa Gull

Hi Wafa,

I tried with version r25.12.1 and it compiled out-of-the-box without any issue. Maybe double check that your MESA_DIR and MESASDK_ROOT variables are set up/exported correctly.

Best,

Théo

Dear mesa users,

I am a new user, and I am trying to model the cepheid variable star below the 6 solar masses.
For this sake I have just download latest MESA software.

I have copied the original folder rsp_cepheid from star/test_suite/rsp_cepheid to my new folder and run but it is spitting out this error.

Do I need to copy some other things as well to run my code?
