The problems Gerardo mentions are not related to the version of
"Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable". Support for some older
MEX functions used by the current builds of MINOPF and BPMPD_MEX was
eliminated in Matlab R2009a. This requires some tweaks to the code and
a recompile. I have the new versions compiled but since I've also made
some changes to some m-files to go along with the upcoming MATPOWER 4,
I was waiting to release them all together. The only thing holding up
the release at this point is getting the MATPOWER manual up to date.

Dear Gerardo,
Once I had such a problem, and even by installing the Microsoft
Visual C++ the problem was not solved. So, I used another solver of
Matpower.
Have you already tried with the installation of the latest Microsoft
Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable?.

Q: Why am I getting the following error when running on Windows?
Invalid MEX-file 'C:\bpmpdmex2.21.1_w32\bp.mexw32': This application
has failed to start because the application configuration is
incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
A: You need to install the latest Microsoft Visual C++ 2005

Dear Sir,
First of all, thanks you for sharing such as powerful tool.
I have been trying to run both AC opf and DC opf in Matlab 7.8.0
(R2009a). I have had the following problems:
DC OPF:
>> rundcopf
??? Invalid MEX-file 'C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\Blanco\Desktop
\bpmpdmex2.21.1_w32_R2006b+\bp.mexw32': Die
angegebene Prozedur wurde nicht gefunden.
(The specified procedure could not be found)
.
Error in ==> mp_qp at 132
[xout,y,s,w,howout] = bp5(H, A, b, f, e, llist, lval, ...
Error in ==> dcopf at 251
[x, lambda, how, success] = mp_qp(H, c, AA, bb, [], [], x,
mpopt(15), qpverbose);
Error in ==> opf at 271
[bus, gen, branch, f, success, info, et] = dcopf(baseMVA, bus,
gen, ...
Error in ==> runopf at 48
[bus, gen, branch, f, success, info, et] = opf(baseMVA, bus, gen,
branch, ...
Error in ==> rundcopf at 44
[baseMVA, bus, gen, gencost, branch, f, success, et] = ...
I have installed the bpmpdmex2.21.1_w32_R2006b+ version and it is
save in the Matlab path, and I have trying with the previous as
well, however the problem persist.
AC OPF:
>> runopf
??? Error using ==> minopf
Function "MXCREATEFULL" is obsolete.
If your MEX file or Simulink S-function calls this function, replace
it with "MXCREATEDOUBLEMATRIX".
If this error originates from a Fortran Simulink S-function that
does not call "MXCREATEFULL", recompile the
S-function in the current release.
Error in ==> mopf at 566
[buso, geno, brancho, f, info, g, jac, xr, pimul] = minopf(baseMVA,
bus,gen, ...
Error in ==> opf at 338
[bus, gen, branch, f, success, info, et] = mopf(baseMVA, ...
Error in ==> runopf at 48
[bus, gen, branch, f, success, info, et] = opf(baseMVA, bus, gen,
branch, ...
However the optimization tool TSPOPF seems work well.
I'll be very grateful, if you could help me to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance.
