mpiTowhee cannot open towhee_input files
Brought to you by:

Hello I am a new user of Towhee. It installed the mpi version of Towhee 7.2.0 and tried to run simulations in parallel. Unfortunately towhee cannot even open the towhee_input files from the specified directories. The error is this:
"towhee_input cannot be opened for job # 1".
I don't know if it's an issue with the versions of input (I guess NOT) or the mpi version is not properly installed. Can anybody help me figure out this issue?
Thank you very much!
That error message is almost always due to not having the full directory path listed in the towhee_parallel file. One common problem for new users is by default the Towhee examples assume everything is in a base directory named /towheebase and users will typically either need to symbolically link that location to their actual install location, or change the directory path in the towhee_parallel and towhee_input files (it is also used to find the forcefield input files inside of towhee_input).
Attempting to run those towhee_input files using the serial version of Towhee is also a good way to make sure something unusual has not gone wrong with the towhee_input files.

Thank you very much! It works now!
