STKO’s NDMaterial tester launching OpenSees
Posted: Thu Jan 22, 2026 4:23 pm
Dear STKO Support,
I’m currently using STKO with OpenSees version 3.7.1, and I’m encountering a persistent issue when trying to run material test.
I’ve installed OpenSees compiled by prof. Nicola Tarque in the default position C:\OpenSees-Solvers. (OpenSees, version 3.4 Features: Sequential OpenSees, Parallel OpenSees)
However, when using the material tester, I get the following error in the terminal window:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Program Files/STKO\external_solvers\opensees\physical_properties\utils\tester\TesterND.py", line 807, in onTestClicked
self.tester.run()
File "C:\Program Files/STKO\external_solvers\opensees\physical_properties\utils\tester\TesterND.py", line 255, in run
for item in tu.executeAsync([opensees_cmd, temp_script_file_rel], temp_dir):
File "C:\Program Files/STKO\external_solvers\opensees\utils\Gui\TesterUtils.py", line 52, in executeAsync
raise Exception(command, exitCode, output)
Exception: (['C:/OpenSees-Solvers/opensees.bat', 'script.tcl'], 3221225477, b'')
Can you please help me to understand the issue?
Thank you in advance.
With kind regards,
Federica
