Hello Yuanpeng and Matthew,

Thank you both very much for your quick responses.
Following your advice, I was able to successfully create the *.inst, *.back, *.bragg, *.rmc6f, and *.dat files using GSAS-II on MacOS.
I’m now running the calculations manually from the RMCProfile terminal, and everything is working smoothly — thank you!

I’d also like to take this opportunity to ask a follow-up question.
Using this approach, I managed to generate all the necessary files for most of my samples.
However, I am having trouble with one specific series: TmCr1-xCoxO3.
After each processing attempt, I receive the following error message: “Tm3+ is not in the list.”
Is thulium implemented in the RMCProfile code?

Thank you again for your assistance.

Best regards,
Tristan

Hi Matthew,

Thanks a lot for sharing! Really appreciate it!

I am definitely interested in hearing more about your usage and problems with GSASII+RMCProfile. If you are OK with that, I think we can arrange a meeting so you can show me (or us). Please feel free to get in touch via my email (zhangy3 at ornl.gov<mailto:zhangy3 at ornl.gov>).

Cheers,
Yuanpeng

Hello Tristan, Yuanpeng

I can confirm that one can use GSAS-II + RMCprofile on the MacOS.  However, for the moment - one just needs to manually run the RMCprofile for your generated .dat file instead of launching from the GSAS-II GUI interface.  You can do that directly in the working GSAS-II project directory.  Otherwise you can pretty much use GSAS-II to make the .dat file and other needed inputs and then after, once complete, to examine many of the results via the GSAS-II GUI and plot windows.

That said, I’ve encountered a few bugs (on Mac silicon) with the interface for RMCprofile on GSAS-II, some of which I’ve sent directly the GSAS team and may have been fixed in recent updates (I’ve not tried this myself for a few months). But those are/were certainly GSAS GUI issues and nothing to do with RMCprofile itself.   I’m happy to exchange further if you are interested.

best regards
Matthew

Hi Tristan,

MacOS has its own way of managing libraries and it is a harsh requirement by the OS itself that we have to follow. So, the RMCProfile package has to be located in the `/Applications` directory. With this regard, there may be some little glitches in the implementation in GSAS-II (I suspect, but not sure). If for the moment you cannot get it working in GSAS-II, you can take the RMCProfile package as an independent package and prepare stuff just using the text-editor-based way. Basically, it is about manually populating the .dat file and preparing the necessary input files (total scattering data, Bragg data, etc.). GSAS-II can still be used for generating Bragg files and maybe the .dat file. It is just that we are not running RMCProfile fitting through GSAS-II (don?t get me wrong ? if we can get the interface working to run RMC within GSAS-II, that is perfect. I will probably try to see whether we can get it working on MacOS, but I suppose this may take some time). If you have difficult
ies in running the RMCProfile package following the independent way, please feel free to reach out and I can for sure help.

Cheers,
Yuanpeng

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [RMCProfile-users] RMCProfile GSAS-II MacOs 15.0.1
Dear Community,

I've explored many topics in this forum, but I haven't found a solution to my issue, so I'm reaching out here.
My apologies if this has already been discussed.

I'm currently using RMCProfile (v6.7.9.5) within the GSAS-II software.
On Windows, it was straightforward to set up by placing the necessary RMCProfile files
(i.e., rmcprofile.exe and the two files in cuda_lib from RMCProfile_package/exe) in the main GSAS-II directory.
This approach allowed RMCProfile to work smoothly with GSAS-II.

However, I haven't been able to get RMCProfile working on MacOS (v15.0.1 - M1 Max).
I've tried placing the RMCProfile files in several locations, but I consistently receive the following error message:

?  RMCProfile is not correctly installed for use in GSAS-II.
Obtain the zip file distribution from https://urldefense.us/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.rmcprofile.org&d=DwIGaQ&c=v4IIwRuZAmwupIjowmMWUmLasxPEgYsgNI-O7C4ViYc&r=FFVJEhliaRWvn1o7oJgZImpxTRec6XXCpU8htYF_j4s&m=j-oMkFjIRrbF76BK3I1tpEwvJ4MKQga1hRpQbAJmD2udC-OM3ZChlr61uIUTrcfQ&s=2oRUMzoa6LCk7OYm8AvwwIqVvHZzash-RcgSSLIx0Nc&e= , unzip it, and place the RMCProfile main directory in the main GSAS-II directory. ?

Has anyone encountered this issue on MacOS and found a workaround or solution?

Thank you very much for your assistance!

Best regards,

Tristan
