Background Information Regarding Wine

Note that the steps described here are executed automatically by the configuration script [config-wine-hawc2.sh] (https://gitlab.windenergy.dtu.dk/toolbox/pbsutils/blob/master/config-wine-hawc2.sh) in pbsutils.

Configure Wine for Gorm

You will also need to configure wine and place the HAWC2 executables in a directory that wine knows about. First, activate the correct wine environment by typing in a shell in the Gorm's home directory (it can be activated with ssh (Linux, Mac) or putty (MS Windows)):

g-000 $ WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 wine test.exe

Optionally, you can also make an alias (a short format for a longer, more complex command). In the .bashrc file in your home directory (/home/$USER/.bash_profile), add at the bottom of the file:

alias wine32='WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 wine'

Add a folder called ~/wine_exe/win32 to your wine system's PATH so we can copy all the HAWC2 executables in here:

$EXE_DIR_WINE="z:/home/$USER/wine_exe/win32/"
printf 'REGEDIT4\n[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Environment]\n"PATH"="'"$EXE_DIR_WINE"'"\n' >> ./tmp.reg
WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 wine regedit ./tmp.reg
rm ./tmp.reg

And now copy all the HAWC2 executables, DLL's (including the license manager) to your wine directory. You can copy all the required executables, dll's and the license manager are located at /home/MET/hawc2exe. The following command will update your local directory with any new executables that have been placed in /home/MET/hawc2exe/win32/:

g-000 $ rsync -a /home/MET/hawc2exe/win32/* /home/$USER/wine_exe/win32/

Notice that the HAWC2 executable names are hawc2-latest.exe, hawc2-118.exe, etc. By default the latest version will be used and the user does not need to specify this. However, when you need to compare different version you can easily do so by specifying which case should be run with which executable. The file hawc2-latest.exe will always be the latest HAWC2 version at /home/MET/hawc2exe/. When a new HAWC2 is released you can simply copy all the files from there again to update.

Configure Wine for Jess

Same principles apply to Jess, and [config-wine-hawc2.sh] (https://gitlab.windenergy.dtu.dk/toolbox/pbsutils/blob/master/config-wine-hawc2.sh) can be used to initialize and configure your wine environment.

Note that due to a bug in the specific version of wine that is installed on Jess, config-wine-hawc2.sh will apply the following command to fix this. It is important to note that this fix will have to be executed on each node at the beginning of each new session:

j-000 $ WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 winefix

winefix is automatically included in the pbs_in scripts genetrated by the toolbox.
