[Octopus-users] Cannot open variables file: /opt/etsf/share/octopus/variables

[Xavier Andrade]

Hi Yasumitsu,

This is very strange, did you check if octopus is installed in the prefix 
that you specified? As a workaround you can force Octopus to use a 
paricular path by setting the OCTOPUS_SHARE variable.

Cheers,

Xavier
