[FLASH-USERS] Error encountered when try to setup a problem

Dear Christine,

The problem is python related. The sys attribute that is missing has been replaced in the version you are using. I suggest trying 3.8, it could solve your problem.

Subject: [FLASH-USERS] Error encountered when try to setup a problem

Hi all,

Sorry to bother you. I have encountered an setup internal error when using:

/setup Sedov -auto

command. The error message is the following:

A setup internal error has occured, if possible please email the following
debugging info to flash-bugs at flash.uchicago.edu
Arguments: ['/home/laserplasma/Downloads/FLASH4.6.2/bin/setup.py', 'Sedov', '-auto']
Python Version: 3.10.4
Platform Details: linux
Traceback (most recent call last):

    sys.setcheckinterval(10000) # this is not threaded application
AttributeError: module 'sys' has no attribute 'setcheckinterval'. Did you mean: 'setswitchinterval'?


Would you please help me look at the error? Would this due the system is not fully statisfied the requirements?
Many thanks.
