FDS impi.dll error

[nanadadya]

hello i am korean student
I am getting an error when trying to run the code with FDS, saying that the code cannot be executed because impi.dll is missing. How can I solve this issue?

Please send a screenshot of your error. Are you using the FDS command shell that was installed on your desktop?

[nanadadya]

yes

[rmcdermo]

What happens when you just type "fds"?

[nanadadya]

I'm not sure which part you mean. Could you please explain in more detail? I haven't been using FDS for long.

[nanadadya]

At school, my professor showed me how to code using this method. However, when I try to replicate it at home, it's not working well.

Your screen capture does not match the instructions in the FDS User's Guide. If you follow those instructions as written, does it work?

[nanadadya]

Usage:
fds_local [options] casename.fds

options:
-c - show command line generated by this script (fds is not run)
-d - add -env I_MPI_DEBUG=5 to the mpiexec line for debugging
-f - force the openmp version of fds to be used even if the number of threads is 1
-F fabric - set I_MPI_FABRICS fabric variable
-h - display this message
-p xx - number of MPI processes [default: 1]
-o yy - number of OpenMP threads per process [default: 4 ]
fds_local uses the non-OpenMP version of fds if the number of OpenMP threads
specified per process is 1 unless the -f option is also specified
-O - add -env I_MPI_WAIT=1 to the mpiexec line for use when your case is oversubscribed
-v - show fds version information
-y dir - run casename.fds in directory dir
-Y - run casename.fds in directory casename

It comes out like this

Good. Now put your input file like this:

fds_local firetest.fds

[nanadadya]

C:\fds_test>fds_local firetest.fds
setting up environment for fds

type helpfds for help on running fds

Starting FDS ...

MPI Process 0 started on BOOK-TUDM6A814N

Reading FDS input file ...

ERROR(101): Problem with MISC line. (CHID: plume)

ERROR: FDS was improperly set-up - FDS stopped (CHID: plume)

The impi.dll error has been resolved, but I am encountering this error afterwards.
