[gmx-users] Interactive Essential Dynamics (IED) installation: vmdnumpy module not available

[Qing Lv]

Dear all,


I am trying to compile IED (Interactive essential dynamics) according to the instructions of
http://mccammon.ucsd.edu/ied/
However, I always got such errors:
------------------------------------------
vmd > gopython
Info) Starting Python...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: vmdnumpy module not available.
Info) Text interpreter now Python
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/local/lib/vmd1.8.7/vmd/scripts/python/Tkinter.py", line 59, in <module>
    import _tkinter # If this fails your Python may not be configured for Tk
ImportError: No module named _tkinter
>>> import vmdnumpy,Numeric
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "VMD", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named vmdnumpy
>>> 
-----------------------------------
I have tried Python 2.5, 2.6, and 2.7, and VMD version from 1.8.4 to 1.9.3. The installation of Python Numeric Version 24.2 is successful.


Anyone have successfully compiled IED? Thanks a lot


Best wishes,
Qing
