standardU.dll.manifest : general error c1010070: Failed to load and parse the manifest.

I want to link Abaqus 6.11-2 to Visual Fortran to run a fortran subroutine in Abaqus. I have Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 (trial version) and Intel Composer XE 2011 (trial version) on my computer. When I run my job in Abaqus, the following error occurs:

Abaqus Error: Problem during linking - Abaqus/Standard User Subroutines.

This error may be due to a mismatch in the Abaqus user subroutine arguments.

These arguments sometimes change from release to release, so user subroutines

used with a previous release of Abaqus may need to be adjusted.

Abaqus/Analysis exited with errors

I have spent more than 3 weeks searching internet to resolve the problem. It would be very appreciated if anyonecould help me resolve this problem.

Thanks a lot,

The following lines:

ifort: command line warning #10161: unrecognized source type 'Od'; object file assumed

ifort: command line warning #10161: unrecognized source type 'Zi'; object file assumed

are the real key. They indicate that the command line given to compile your Fortran subroutines was incorrect. Instead of /Od and /Zi, the line probably had something like .Od and .Zi. You didn't show the script or batch file that is used to compile the Fortran code, but you need to correct it. Once you do that, the other errors will probably go away.

Really, this is an issue with how you are using Abaqus, and you might have fared better had you started with Abaqus support.

Dear Steve,

Thank you very much for youranswer.
Before comming to this forum, I had called Abaqus Support Center and they said I should call Intel Support Center.
Where can I find the script or batch file that is used to compile the Fortran code? It should be a part of Abaqus, shouldn't it?

Thanks,

Samad

javids2002 · ‎08-05-2012

Dear Steve,

Thank you very much for your help.
I found the file compiling and linking fortran subroutines. It is a .env file. As you said, instead of '/Od' and '/Oz' it contained 'Od' and 'Oz' . I changed them and the two warnings were removed,butthe errorstill exists.
The new error file is as follows:
"

There is some error running the Manifest Tool (mt.exe) from the set of commands in your environment file. I would guess that it is unable to find standardU.dll. The .env file you show is something specific to Abaqus and I am not completely sure how to interpret it, as it obviously does some symbol substitution. But let me suggest that you change:

/outputresource:%J;1

to:

/outputresource:%J;#1

in the two places it appears.

javids2002 · ‎08-06-2012

Dear Steve,

Than you for your comment.
I made your suggested change in the .env file, but it did not sole the problem.

Thanks a lot,

Steven_L_Intel1 · ‎08-06-2012

Given that you have had several transcription errors in the .env file already, I wonder if there are others. Your problem is not with Intel Fortran. If you can provide a log of the commands actually executed, perhaps we can help you, but otherwise we're just guessing. The basic issue seems to be that the mt command is being asked to do something to a file it can't find. Is your DLL actually in the location you think it is? What is the full path to the DLL?

Nasim_L_ · ‎09-24-2012

Well, it has been a while since you have posted the problem and hopefully you have already solved it. Otherwise, you can try to add "/manifest /manifestfile:%U.manifest" to the first line of the link_sl in the .env file as follows: link_sl='cmd /c "LINK /manifest /manifestfile:%U.manifest /nologo /INCREMENTAL:NO /subsystem:console /machine:AMD64 /NODEFAULTLIB:LIBC.LIB /NODEFAULTLIB:LIBCMT.LIB /DEFAULTLIB:OLDNAMES.LIB /DEFAULTLIB:LIBIFCOREMD.LIB /DEFAULTLIB:LIBIFPORTMD.LIB /DEFAULTLIB:LIBMMD.LIB /DEFAULTLIB:MSVCRT.LIB /DEFAULTLIB:kernel32.lib /DEFAULTLIB:user32.lib /DEFAULTLIB:advapi32.lib /FIXED:NO /dll /def:%E /out:%U %F %A %B oldnames.lib user32.lib ws2_32.lib netapi32.lib advapi32.lib && mt /manifest %U.manifest /outputresource:%U;2 && del %U.manifest"' It solved the problem for me.

Hello,

This post is quite old but I was wondering if anyone could help me.
I had the same errors when trying to link Abaqus 6.10 to Visual Studio 10.0 x64 and Intel Fortran 11.1 x64 (both compatible with this version of Abaqus) on Windows 7 x64:

using abaqus command prompt:

I tryed to apply the suggestions from the folowing websites but they were written for 32-bit systems if I'm not wrong:

What could I try to solve this problem?

Thank you in advance for your time and attention.

Best regards,

Without seeing the exact commands that the Abaqus script used, it's difficult to diagnose this. In general, this error means that the DLL was created in a different place than the manifest tool (mt.exe) was told to look for it. I suggest you start with Abaqus support for help with this.
