reuse modelDB:84589

Post by Sun Xiaoqing »

Hi,

I'm trying to reuse the Extracellular Action Potential Simulation from:
https://senselab.med.yale.edu/ModelDB/S ... 589#tabs-1
It was implemented in 2006, and some code didn't work right now. I also have tried to create my own model by combining different parts from the other models which I found it very difficult to achieve.

I'm using Win10 and by typing cmd:

Code: Select all

c:\eaps>c:\nrn\bin\neuron.exe -dll mod\nrnmech.dll hoc/src/refs.hoc cells/d151.hoc hoc/src/main.hoc
These messages showed:

Code: Select all

c:\eaps>NEURON -- VERSION 7.7.2 7.7 (2b7985ba) 2019-06-20
Duke, Yale, and the BlueBrain Project -- Copyright 1984-2018
See http://neuron.yale.edu/neuron/credits

loading membrane mechanisms from mod/nrnmech.dll
Additional mechanisms from files
 cadif.mod cal.mod can.mod car.mod cat.mod hdend.mod hsoma.mod kadist.mod kahp.mod kaprox.mod kc.mod kd.mod kk.mod km.mod naf.mod nax.mod
LOADING GEOMETRY FOR d151

-> Setting file roots...
C:\nrn\bin\nrniv.exe: set_file_roots undefined function
 in hoc/src/main.hoc near line 121
 set_file_roots()
I was able to compile the mod file and it seemed like the Geometry of the cell was also successfully loaded. I tried to revise it but didn't work out.
Can anyone give me some advice? Thanks.

Kind regard,
SUN XIAOQING

I also got another confusion that when I double click on eaps\cell\d151.hoc, I got these error messages:

Code: Select all

NEURON -- VERSION 7.7.2 7.7 (2b7985ba) 2019-06-20

 neuron_name = "d151"
After deleting the statements from the start:

Code: Select all

neuron_name = "d151"
cell_type = "ca1pyr"
Error messages also showed up like this:

Code: Select all

LOADING GEOMETRY FOR d151
oc>     -65
However, I was able to choose from Tools\Shape Plot, The d151 cell was the correct shape.

When I double clicked on nrniv_python, no error messages showed up, then why I still got :

Code: Select all

Could not open C:/Users/sunxi/AppData/Roaming/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Anaconda3 (64-bit)/Anaconda Prompt.lnk
Could not open C:/Users/sunxi/AppData/Roaming/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Anaconda3 (64-bit)/Anaconda Prompt.lnk

Sorry for my relative basic questions, I'd appreciate it if you can give me some advice or suggesting some reference book or posts which I can solve this problem. Thank you.

Tom Morse, curator of ModelDB, has revised this model entry so that it works under MSWin and is easier to launch (including enabling "auto-launch" to work). He has also revised the README.html file accordingly. Many thanks, Tom!
