Running GAMS on a server (shells)

GAMS
1

Hi, I am a graduate student. I am trying to run GAMS on our university
servers, since I don’t have a license. However I want to pipe my
output to a text file.

So I followed the following command:

gams rough > log.txt &

where rough is the GAMS file. Somehow GAMS is preventing me from
piping. Hence I was wondering if anyone have come across this problem
and if you guys have a solution it would be great. Thanks.

Hello,

Pipes work with stdout, but GAMS sends the log to /dev/tty by default,
not to stdout. To output to stdout, do

gams rough lo=3

This can be piped. However, you can skip the pipe and redirect to a
file by doing

gams rough lo=2

which writes to rough.log. To rename the log file, use the logfile
option, (short version: lf), like this:

gams rough lo=2 lf=log.txt
