gams_job.interrupt() does not work in Python 3.6

GAMS
1

I create GamsJob instances to run my optimization problems and I want to be able to stop them running whenever I want. However, when i run

gams_job.interrupt()

method, in Windows 10 I get the following error:

ArgumentError: argument 4: <class 'OverflowError'>: int too long to convert

I tried this in Linux as well. In Linux I do not get an error but I still see GAMS running as a process when I check it with

ps -aux | grep gams

Do you have any clue what the problem could be?

Many thanks in advance!

Serdar,

This is actually a bug in the GAMS Python API. We have already fixed the bug and will publish it in the next GAMS release. Thank you very much for reporting this problem.

Best,

Hi

I am trying to import data by Python in GAMS and run my model (with python).
Opening Anacondo prompt I changed the directory to C:\GAMS\win64\26.1\apifiles\Python\api_36.
After that I executed setup.py in Anaconda prompt.

However, after installing the phthon api (3.6) I execute the following:

from gams import GamsWorkspace
or
from gams import *

But I get this error:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘gams’

Is this because the apis are not installed appropriately?

I will grateful for helping me with this issue
