opening summary plots in python about resdata

[joakim-hove]

Well;

as the error message says the python module can not locate the underlying shared library libecl.so - and why is that is not immediately clear to me. If you find the location of the libecl.sofile you can set the LD_LIBRARY_PATHvariable to point there:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/libecl/library

That being said something was slightly broken with the 2017.10 version of the libecl packages. For Python and plotting with summaryplot you can just download and build your own version; it is quite simple:

git clone [email protected]:Statoil/libecl
cd libecl
mkdir build ; cd build
cmake .. -DENABLE_PYTHON=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFFIX=$HOME/libecl/install
make 
make install

Then you can set PYTHONPATH=$HOME/llibecl/install/lib/python2.7/dist-packages and things should work.

The Python bindings in the libecl distribution are quite well maintained, and generally work well. However the summaryplot in opm-utilities is not equally well maintained; and you might have to make some changes there as well. I'd be happy to assist you.

For something more feature complete you could give Resinsight a try, that will also show 3D fields like pressure and saturations.

[pgdr]

Or perhaps sudo make install is simpler if you want to avoid path managing

Thank you so much for the guidance ! I followed the above mentioned set of instructions, but i now i am getting a new error:

how can I fix this ?

Joakim,

I like ResInsight, but I am trying to automate the generation of graphs, so that with one command the system will display a list of graphs for me. Can ResInsight do something like that ?

Closing due to age. Looks like a Linux environment issue rather than anything in libecl.
