Ventura 13.2.1 and NEURON

Post by salvoj »

Have a newer Mac with 13.2.1 (due to all the recent security upgrades). Downloaded Neuron from site and installed ok. But did get a warning: "NEURON was successfully installed, but...Mod files cannot be linked into NEURON unless Command Line Tools is installed, and NEURON cannot use its classic X11 GUI unless XQuartz is installed. If either or both are not installed, you will be asked if you wish to instal them."

I was not asked to install either, but installed XQuartz. I am not clear where to find the other program.

I can compile files with mknrndll. and create a "arm64" file. Again a list of items say they are not "thread safe"

Now I try to open the demo in nrngui, and get this
"Could not dlopen NRN_PYLIB: /Users/salvoj/anaconda3/lib/libpython3.10.dylib
libnrniv.dylib running as arm64
but /Users/salvoj/anaconda3/lib/libpython3.10.dylib can only run as x86_64

nrngui exit status was 1"

I tried to look into XQuartz and it seems that it will not accept the "arm64" currently (if I understood that all correctly.)

I keep the NEURON folder in my applications and my test files on my desktop. Anaconda3 is in my "users" folder but placed a link in the applications folder when it installed.

I am very new to this, so I apologize in advance. It would be nice to able to run the program. Any suggestions?
