Unable to run Inductive Visual Miner [Java-RuntimeException|

fedescenna

Hi All, 

With both ProM and ProM lite (in the latest versions available), I load the Event Log with no problems and everything seems to work fine. However, when I try to run the Inductive Visual Miner on the Event log I get this error message. 

       Unable to produce the requested visualization

Error Message

java.lang.RuntimeException: Graphviz-dot binary not found. 

 Please find the image attached.

Hi,

one possible reason is that the dot.exe file is missing for somehow. Please try to remove the \dotBinaries7 directory, and run the ProM and the plugin again.

Hope this helps.

I had the same problem and this worked, thanks!

Frank

Where can I find the \dotBinaries7 directory on a Mac?

As a result of the former, if you want ProM to recreate these files, just remove the entire .prom-graphviz folder.

Hi Frank,

You can find the latest dot binaries as used by ProM (including the Inductive Visual Miner) in the folder <java.io.tmpdir>/.prom-graphviz. If java.io.tmpdir is not explicitly set, it will have a default value, like /tmp. However, different systems may return different folders, so it is hard to say which folder it is exactly in.

You can set java.io.tmpdir to some folder (like /tmp) by adding the following snippet to the line that starts the ProM VM:

-Djava.io.tmpdir=/tmp<br>

Then you know that the dot binaries are in the/tmp/.prom-graphviz folder.

Note that ProM will copy the files into that folder when it detects that these files are not there yet.

Kind regards,

Eric.

hi all

I got the same problem . I run proM13 on a Mac, when I use inductive visual miner ,proM quit.

I try Frank's way to solve this problem,but I still can't find the file on my Mac.

and the VM for proM on my Mac, return as below:

Start plug-in Mine with Inductive visual Miner

End plug-in Mine with Inductive visual Miner, took 0 milliseconds

Start plug-in Inductive visual Miner

Hi Avril,

I don't think this is a problem with dot. Other dot-related plugins may just work on your Mac.

As from MacOS Catalina, some plugins in ProM (and ProM Lite) have stopped working. This is caused by the fact that these plugin require a 32-bit library to load, and MacOS has stopped support of 32-bit libraries as per Catalina. Unfortunately, we do not have a 64-bit version for Mac for that library, we do have them for Linux and Windows, but not for MacOS.

Strane enough, however, I've seen recent Macs with recent MacOSs where the Inductive Visual Miner did just work. But apparently you're not lucky in this.

Running ProM Lite in a (Windows) VM may be an option.

Kind regards,

Eric.
