Moose not recognizing mesh generators as objects

[willschlueter]

I am trying to run moose to generate some simple meshes as a test but each time I do I get the same error that '[MeshGeneratorName] is not a registered object'. I have every module in the moose makefile enabled, and can even find the proper mesh generators in the ~/projects/moose/modules/reactor/include/meshgenerators directory. Additionally, I can run the tutorials found at https://mooseframework.inl.gov/getting_started/examples_and_tutorials/ just fine. Any ideas on what I might be doing wrong?

hello

these are in the reactor module not in the framework, so you need to compile that module (and use the reactor-opt) executable to use these mesh generators.
Any executable, such as the tutorial's, that does not include the reactor module will not know about them

Unfortunately I get this same error even when using mesh files that are not from the reactor module, such as the files in this screenshot. The will-opt executable definitely has the reactor module enabled, yet does not seem to recognize the reactor module objects.

PolygonConcentricCirlceMG is from the reactor module as well.

The will-opt executable definitely has the reactor module enabled, yet does not seem to recognize the reactor module objects.

you ll need to recompile. git clean -Xfd your app and MOOSE, make sure reactor = yes in the Makefile, then recompile

should the git clean be run from the ~/projects/will directory (given 'will' is the name of my app)?

in mosoe/ as well

Looks like that worked. Thanks again Dr. Giudicelli!
