[TRNSYS-users] GenOpt could not be found

This error is usually caused by one of three problems:

1. GenOpt and Trnsys17 both need to be installed in locations that allow 
full and complete read/write access to all users (including the SYSTEM 
user, which is a built-in account.)
2. Go through your project and make sure that you do not have any 
relative path names specified. Make sure all path names (to weather 
files, external data files, output files, etc.) are all complete paths 
starting with the drive letter
3. there is some mismatch between where GenOpt, Java, and Trnsys are 
actually located and the locations that are shown in the TRNOPT settings.

I would recommend that you go very carefully through the TRNOPT 
documentation's setup procedure and make sure that you can get the 
TRNOPT example to run before you try running your own optimization. That 
will help determine whether you are facing and install/permissions issue 
or an issue that is specific to your simulation.
kind regards,
  David
