CPLEX Julia/JuMP Connection Problem

Armando_Gabriel_Guar · May 7, 2021, 2:49pm

Dear Julia Guys,

I am having a lot of trouble to make cplex run with julia/jump, (Gurobi has been seamless and works perfect). I installed the package and when running the sentence “using CPLEX”, I get the following message. Can you help me out?

I ran into similar issues with CPLEX, solved when I reverted to the old version, as suggested here: https://github.com/jump-dev/CPLEX.jl Maybe it will help you too?

Thanks for your reply. I reverted to the old version but the failure to precompile keeps happening.

I also uninstalled cplex 20.1 and kept only CPLEX 12.10. I really don´t know what might be the issue…

Can you open an issue at cplex.jl with the details? Please include versioninfo().

I think there is already an issue for that: Installation Problem - CPLEX package on Julia · Issue #368 · jump-dev/CPLEX.jl · GitHub. However, I really cannot reproduce locally (even though I have a Windows system). I think we need a bit more information, like that versioninfo().

Armando_Gabriel_Guar · May 9, 2021, 10:19pm

I have tried several times, reinstalling julia, etc.
