ifcore_msg and irc_msg

[mhutson]

I run a large batch file and get 2 error messages saying "ifcore_msg" and "irc_msg" "is not a valid windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette."

Those are "message catalog" DLLs which can be found in C:Program FilesIntelCompiler11.1xxxbinia321033 It may be that they are corrupted. You may want to uninstall and reinstall the compiler.

I tried to repair the files, which did not work. I have since uninstalled and reinstalled the whole program, and I am still getting the error messages. Is there something else it might be?

Do you see this only when building from this batch file? Is it on all compiles, or only some? What is the ifort command used?

Can you build a new project successfully? I think to test this you'll have to introduce a syntax error into the source so that the message catalog gets loaded.

Also, please tell me what kind of system you're building this on (32-bit, 64-bit) and how you establish the Intel Fortran environment for this batch job.

I'm using 64-bit. I'm actually just downloading pre-programmed set of batch files that are suppossed to run on their own; I just compile them and then and execute the batch file. I've seen it work on another computer, but it doesn't seem to want to run on this one.

When you say "you just compile them", what exactly do you do?

I go into microsoft visual studio, then build all the individual modules (several different files with their own estimation code) so that they are all grouped together and fully debugged.

I then run the batch code which then copies all the modules to a new folder. The modules are then run to produce the model results. It is this last bit where I keep getting the irc and ifcore errors.

When you say "modules", do you mean the executables? How are the modules run?
