[SOLVED] Missing SosfSphFluid dll

[Nolwenn]

Hi,
I just began my PhD and I wanted to try SOFA to explore the possibilities it offers. So I installed it (version v17.12.00) but when I “runSofa” I have the following error :”The program can’t start because SofaSphFluid.dll is missing from your computer“. I checked and the dll is not in the bin folder.
I also have two errors appearing in the command window :
“C:\Program Files\SOFA_v17.12\bin>runSofa -a
[ERROR] [FileSystem::createdirectory()] C:/Program Files/SOFA_v17.12/config: error 5: Access is denied.
Created directory: C:/Program Files/SOFA_v17.12/config
[ERROR] [FileSystem::createdirectory()] C:/Program Files/SOFA_v17.12/screenshots: error 5: Access is denied.”

So my questions are :
-Is it normal that the “SofaSphFluid.dll” is missing or did I do something wrong with the installation ?
-Is it possible to use partially SOFA without this dll ?
-I am not an administrator on my machine, is it a problem to use SOFA ?

I am sorry for these basic questions but I did not find other topics related to my issues.

Thanks,
Nolwenn

Ok I regenerated the release. The problem should be fixed now.
Could you try to download and install again?

Thanks,
