I installed MFIX for the first time. The installation is in Windows 10 using miniforge3. While trying to run any of the tutorials, the Run prompt shows no solvers. I can go to …\mfix-24.2.3\Scripts and select mfixsolver.bat. Then it runs all right. However, this selection needs to be made every time a case is to be run. I could not locate any setting where default solver directory or default solver location could be specified. Maybe it is specified via an environment variable.
Sorry for the late response, I’ve been on vacation and am just getting caught up with the user forum.
Thanks for reporting this. It seems that MFiX 24.2.3 release did not recieve enough testing on Windows. We appreciate your pointing out this problem, it will be fixed in the next MFiX release (24.3, due late Sep/early Oct)
For now the simplest way to fix this is
Open the Miniforge prompt
conda activate mfix-24.2.3
cd %CONDA_PREFIX%
mkdir bin
copy Scripts\mfixsolver*.* bin
This should fix the empty solver list problem. Please let us know if you have further trouble.
