LoadError: UndefVarError: Grisu not defined

Specific Domains Optimization (Mathematical)

I’m getting the above error with JuMP / MathOptInterface when I attempt to write a model to a file:

MOI.write_to_file(lp_model, gName*".lp")

I note that there has been some discussion about Grisu in a plots+1.6 context recently but this error has existed for me in previous (< v1.6) versions – though I am now running 1.6.0.

Would anybody have any suggestions, please? Many thanks.

The first few lines of stacktrace are:

Have you tried to install the Grisu package ?

Yes. Unless it should have been installed in some way other than the straightforward add Grisu; using Grisu way then it is not solving the issue.

MathOptFormat.jl is deprecated. You can write directly from JuMP now.

using JuMP
model = Model()
write_to_file(model, "model.lp")

https://jump.dev/JuMP.jl/v0.21.8/manual/models/#Write-a-model-to-file

You can also write directly from MathOptInterface:

Thank you. That’s nice to know.

However when I tried upgrading my JuMP package I got teh below. I’m sure I’m doing something wrong here.

The error says that PlotShapeFiles requires Compose 0.8, which doesn’t support DataStructures 0.18, as required by JuMP.

Documentation: 3. Managing Packages · Pkg.jl

That means you can’t use the latest versions of ComposePlotShapeFiles and JuMP together.

Either remove ComposePlotShapeFiles ] rm PlotShapeFiles, or more preferably, use a Pkg environment to minimize the conflicts: 4. Working with Environments · Pkg.jl.

The latest version of Compose is 0.9.2, which is compatible with DataStructures 0.18. The issue is that PlotShapeFiles requires an old version of Compose.

Ah, you’re right. I don’t know why I got confused.
