Known bugs

While we always try to test each release as much as we can, inevitably some bugs will always slip through unnoticed. This page only shows the most important bugs that have surfaced after the release was made.

Remember to also check the bugs on the project website. To stay up to date with the latest news and releases, we also recommend subscribing to our mailinglist here. Traffic will be kept to a minimum and you can unsubscribe at any time. (Note: due to technical reasons you will not be able to post on the mailing list)

If you happen to encounter something not listed here, please report it.

Version 4.0

Bug	The toolbox goes into a seemingly infinite loop if u are using the Matlab sample evaluator and there is an error in your matlab function.
Status	Wont fix
Workaround	This is due to the poor Java -> Matlab interface and thus there is little we can do about it. It is best to make sure your function runs without error by running it manually.

Bug	In some rare cases the toolbox goes into an infinite loop when using the grid sample selector.
Status	Fixed in SVN.
Workaround	This happens in some rare cases, and is due to the way the grid SE works. This will be fixed in the next release. In the meantime, if you run into the problem use a different sample selector or combine the grid SE with a different SE (e.g., the random SE) using the CombinedSampleSelector.

Bug	If the first component inside the <Plan> tag is a component that is overridden in the <Run> tag, a NullPointerException occurs
Status	Fixed in SVN.
Workaround	This is a very obscure bug, simply make sure that the first component in your <Plan> tag is one that is NOT overridden in a <Run> tag. Use for example <ContextConfig>.

Bug	When modeling the same output multiple times in parallel, some profilers may interfere with each other
Status	Fixed in SVN.
Workaround	Avoid modeling the same output multiple times in the same run. Try using different runs or turning off the profilers that give problems.

Version 3.3

Bug	Loading a saved model file from disk gives warnings and in some cases even errors (see the FAQ)
Status	fixed in the latest snapshots
Workaround	if you are lucky you can just ignore the warnings and it should work, in some cases it wont and you will need to upgrade

Bug	Movie generation gives problems on windows
Status	Fixed
Workaround	Use a different operating system (Linux, OSX, ...) or upgrade and edit src/matlab/modelbuilders/@AdaptiveModelBuilder/createMovie.m file so it creates an avi instead of a mov file (Warning: the avi file is not compressed and may be very big!)
