Error with Global Optimization Toolbox

Hello,

I am unable to run particle swarm optimiztion using the global optimization toolbox. I confirmed that 2022b Global Optimization Toolbox is(has been) installed on my computer. Can you help me fix this error?

Hi @Brett Fleisher

What error message did you receive? Additionally, please check if the file "particleswarm.m" exists.

which particleswarm -all

/MATLAB/toolbox/globaloptim/globaloptim/particleswarm.m

What does unable mean? Do you get an error? If so, WHAT ERROR! Show the complete error, so everything in red. Would you call your doctor and telling them only you have an unspecified problem, expect them to diagnose your problem over the phone, while telling them nothing more than that? Show how you tried to call that code.

There are infinitely many things you may be doing wrong, even if you do have the code available to you. We cannot gues which of those infinitely many problems you may have encounterd.

Understood, John. I am using the gQSPsim GUI for simulations. The attached box appears, and I don't get any error messages, but I do get the following warnings when I start gQSPsim

Warning: Adding folders named 'resources' to the path is not supported: \Documents\MATLAB\Add-Ons\Apps\gQSPSim - 2\GUI_Layout_Toolbox\resources

Warning: Proper operation of gQSPsim requires long filename support to be enabled.

Long filename support can be enabled with Remove_260_Character_Path_Limit.reg in:

And I confirm that I have particle swarm:

Thank you for your help

You should contact Technical Support for help.

Hi Brett - let me see if I can help with this issue as I have helped with the development of gQSPSim. I'll try to get back to you today if possible.

Hi Ricardo, I found the issue- internally we had to move around licenses. Thanks for your help. We can close this thread

[Rick Paxson]

OK, thanks for letting me know.
