Research direction
Start by reproducing Tutorial 1 step 3 with Python 3.8.5, NEURON 8.0.0, and the commands involving components/mechanisms and modfiles. Check why nrnivmodl does not produce sim_ch01/config.simulation.json; done means the documented step completes and the tutorial can proceed.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
I encountered the highlighted issue about compiling NEURON mechanisms. There is by default no mechanisms folder by default in components, and after creating one and trying the suggested fix 'nrnivmodl modfiles' from /.../mechanisms, it fails. Creating a modfiles folder lets'nrnivmodl modfiles' run, but the sim_ch01/config.simulation.json file does not get created and I cannot move past step 3.
For reference I am using Python 3.8.5, neuron 8.0.0.
I would assume that there is trouble with the path for neuron like the warning suggests in step 3, but I can import neuron in Jupyter. Does bmtk need to be downloaded in a certain location? If I knew what mechanisms were required, could I manually make the folder and then run nrnivmodl modfiles (or does that line normally populate the folder)?
