Error executing an input file: Failed to get real path

[rl3fz]

Hello everyone, I'm on Step 2 of the tutorial, and after following the instructions to execute the 'pressure_diffusion.i' file, I keep getting:

*** ERROR ***
Failed to get real path for pressure_diffusion.i

I was previously able to execute the file using the command ../babbler-opt -i pressure_diffusion.i but not anymore. I've tried retracing my steps and updating MOOSE and Conda, but I'm not sure what changed.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Are you on Windows WSL?

An input file is a text file (ASCII), the only difference is the extension. You should be able to rename the file (i.e. drop the .txt extension) without doing anything else to "create" your input file.

".txt" does not appear when I try to rename it; I can't edit it out manually. Is there a way to do so from the command line?

(even when I end the name with ".i")

try mv pressure_diffusion.i.txt pressure_diffusion.i

This works, thank you!
