Thank you very much Jon<div><br></div><div>I found fort.12 file in my cfg folder, and changing material db link to the file(fort.12) seem to work.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards</div><div><br></div><div>Mark Kim</div><div> <br></div><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009년 10월 6일오후 5:39, Jon Hand <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jon@esru.strath.ac.uk">jon@esru.strath.ac.uk</a>></span>님의 말:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"> <br> There are currently a number of revisions to the interaction with the materials databases<br> which are about to go into the development branch. And most of the exemplar models<br> have been recently revised and are about to be updated in the development_branch.<br> <br> This might correct the issue described in the email below.<br> <br> One thing to check - there is a binary version of materials as well as an ASCII version<br> of materials databases. If you look in C:\Esru\esp-r\databases you will see constr.db1 and<br> constr.db1.a as well as constr.db2 and constr.db2.a.  Check your model and see if<br> you are using a materials file which ends with an 'a'.  If not, use WordPad and edit the<br> model configuration file line which starts with *prm and add a '.a' to the<br> end of the file name.<br> <br> Also check and see if there is a file starting with the name 'fort' in your model folder.<br> If the project manager forgets a file name then it may write the changed data to<br> a so-called fort file (which is actually the materials database).<br> <br> -Jon Hand<br> ________________________________________<br> From: <a href="mailto:esp-r-bounces@lists.strath.ac.uk">esp-r-bounces@lists.strath.ac.uk</a> [<a href="mailto:esp-r-bounces@lists.strath.ac.uk">esp-r-bounces@lists.strath.ac.uk</a>] On Behalf Of 김민환 [<a href="mailto:hwan@dasskorea.com">hwan@dasskorea.com</a>]<br> Sent: 06 October 2009 07:06<br> To: <a href="mailto:esp-r@lists.strath.ac.uk">esp-r@lists.strath.ac.uk</a><br> Subject: [esp-r]  fail to modify material db<br> <div><div></div><div class="h5"><br> Dear all<br> <br> Currently I'm using ESP-r native windows version 11.7(4333).<br> <br> To modify material, construction, and optical db for a certain project, I usually open example model,<br> <br> and copy default dbs, modify them, and save the change, including save the model after changing db.<br> <br> Recently I found that while construction and optical db is well modified and remained as they were modified,<br> <br> there's problem in saving any changes of material db.<br> <br> I tried various approaches such as altering the db path that the path doesn't include ' '(space), or using a new model<br> <br> instead of example model. But the results were same. I fail to modify material db.<br> <br> Are there any one who experienced similar challenge?<br> <br> FYI, I attached the material db file.
