Hello, I wanted to try easy build on one of our systems. I tried to install it using the bootstrap method. However, when I run the script I get:
valeriuc@login3:~/tmp$ python bootstrap_eb.py $HOME/.local/easybuild [[INFO]] Found module command 'modulecmd' (EnvironmentModulesC), so using it.

After I set up _LMFILES_ to the same value as LOADEDMODULES (probably not correct), EasyBuild installed. I can do: module load EasyBuild, and eb --help, but when I try to use EasyBuild to install a module I get: eb WRF-3.5.1-goolf-1.4.10-dmpar.eb -Dr == temporary log file in case of crash /scratch/easybuild-EZ0NgN/easybuild- LLd1gH.log ERROR: EasyBuild crashed with an error (at easybuild/software/EasyBuild/ 1.15.2/lib/python2.6/site-packages/easybuild_framework-1.15.2-py2.6.egg/ easybuild/tools/modules.py:541 in run_module): homkat(4):ERROR:154: Version symbol 'default' loops. I mention that I use the Tcl module environment, version 3.1.6. Could you please give me some hints on what could be wrong? Best regards, Vali
