[Gate-users] GateMaterial Error in Voxelized Phantom simulation

[Fei Gao]

Dear Gate users,

 

I just reinstalled GATE, benchmarks and some examples run well,

But when I simulate a system of Voxelized phantom, the macros used are from
the example folders:

/examples/example_FULL_SIMULATION/YourScanner.mac

/examples/example_PHANTOM_SOURCE/Voxelized_Phantom_Source/VoxelizedPhantom.m
ac

 

I get error messages as follow:

 

 

/gate/world/daughters/name hof_brain
/gate/world/daughters/insert parameterizedBoxMatrix
   GateMaterialDatabase: did not load properties table for material
'Vacuum'.
     This is only a problem when OPTICAL PHOTONS are transported in this
material.'
/gate/hof_brain/geometry/insertReader interfile
GateVGeometryVoxelReader::GateVGeometryVoxelReader: m_voxelTranslator 0
/gate/hof_brain/interfileReader/insertTranslator range
GateVGeometryVoxelReaderMessenger::SetNewValue: newValue (translatorType) :
range
/gate/hof_brain/interfileReader/rangeTranslator/readTable range.dat

!!! GateMDBFile::LookForElementIndbStream:   
        I could not find any section [Materials] in the material database
file. 
        You should check the database file.
        Computation aborted!!!


*** G4Exception: Aborting execution ***
Aborted

 

However, when I checked the file GateMaterials.db, I do find "[Materials]"
in it.

 

Is there anybody encounter this problem? Or some suggestion? 

Any help will be highly appreciated!

 

Many thanks

 

 

Sincerely

Fei
