Dear Roland,
Thank you for your reply!
not sure if only modifying it in .zshrc will do the trick since
simfactory does not call "hostname -f" but instead uses the OS
functions that hostname uses (among other things) which may not see /
respect anything set in your .zshrc.
A couple more suggestions and double checks:
Did you try the command:
echo >$HOME/.hostname "compos_MacBook"
?
Did you run "./simfactory/bin/sim setup-silent" once more after the
modification?
With your modification, can you run "simfactory whoami" or does this
produce an error? What is the output?
So, I did this but the same error keeps showing up. When I run
"simfactory whoami" it shows: "command not found: simfactory
I checked the directory: simfactory/mdb/machines, and actually there
is a file called: [email protected]. I'm sure this is the one messing
up the whole thing. Can I modify this file by hand?
Thank you!
Best wishes,
Camilo

Hello Camilo,

produce an error? What is the output?
Are there any files starting with "campos" in simfactory/mdb/machines/
? This is where "setup-silent" creates a file <MACHINENAME>.ini (and
the desire to avoid unusual characters in there is part of why we only
allow "harmless" characters.
Yours,
Roland
Dear Roland,
Thank you very much for your kind response. I thought the problem
was my laptop's name due to the @ character, so I decided to change
the name, and I also modified the .zshrc file so my host name looks
cleaner in the shell. However I still have the same problem. I am
attaching the output you asked for. I also tried your solution, but
I got the same problem.
Thank you in advance for your help
Best wishes,
Camilo

Hello Camilo,
I have not quite seen that error before. From the output it would seem
that simfactory's setup-silent command is not happy with the machine
names that it picked. Did you name your laptop "compos@MacBook" (you
can check this via the "Sharing" preferences on the "System
Preferences") by any chance?
Can you let me know what "hostname -f" outputs?
The simplest way to work around this for you is to create a file named
".hostname" in your $HOME with the name you would like simfactory to
pretend your laptop is named eg this command should do:
echo >$HOME/.hostname "compos_MacBook"
Yours,
Roland
