Subject: PEST Calibration is not running well   
Posted: 11/11/2024 Viewed: 388 times
Hello WEAP users,

I started my calibration with PEST, but inicially, the application took a few minutes running its interactions. An error occorrued and looking some discussions here, I uninstalled and reinstalled the WEAP, and now, when I started the PEST, nothing happens when I run the PEST, the program goes to Scenario Explorer and shows the same values that I put at the beggining.

Can anyone help me with this problem?

Thanks in advance.
Mr. Doug Chalmers

Icaro,

Some ideas to try and help-

If you open the Tutorial area in WEAP (go to Area --> Open --> Tutorial) then go to Area --> Revert to Version --> Answer Key for Snow Hydrology and PEST Calibration, can you run the PEST tool in this area? If it runs, then there is something in your particular area you were running before that is causing the problem. If it doesn't run, there is something about your system causing it not to work for all your WEAP areas.

It may be possible that some files are locked, perhaps by OneDrive or Dropbox syncing processes, or a virus scanning applications. Would any of these apply to your system? Try pausing any of these processes.

Please let me know if these fixes work for you. Good luck!

-Doug

Doug,

First, thank you for answering my question. I tried to do what you suggested me, first I opened the Tutorial and I ran PEST. But when I did this, I had another doubt: when I run PEST, it is necessary the application do interactions with the prompt window opened, or the WEAP can just do the interaction with this one fastly and the window closes and goes to the Scenario Explorer window , with the 'calibration' finished? I also tried to disable onedrive, but the same situation happened.

This was the situation is happening with me, and I don't know exactly if WEAP ran the first calibration or not bacause the prompt window dissapears and finish. Previously, before unistall WEAP and install again, the prompt window appeared and started the interactions.

Could you help me with this?

Thanks in advance again!

Icaro,

To try and help further-

Is the prompt window you are referring to the DOS window that looks like command prompt? Is it going to Scenario Explorer?  Do the values change at all, as they would if it had actually done some calibration?  Do you have the current (public) version of WEAP (2024.0)?

Cheers,
Doug
