I get a popup window that says “Runtime Error! Program: C:\… R6034 An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.” when running the following lines of Python code in Abaqus:
from scipy.interpolate import NearestNDInterpolator
from scipy.spatial import KDTree
When I close the error window, ABAQUS tells me that:
File "C:\SIMULIA\EstProducts\2022\win_b64\tools\SMApy\python2.7\lib\site-packages\scipy\__init__.py", line 119, in
from scipy._lib._ccallback import LowLevelCallable
File "C:\SIMULIA\EstProducts\2022\win_b64\tools\SMApy\python2.7\lib\site-packages\scipy\_lib\_ccallback.py", line 1, in
from . import _ccallback_c
ImportError: DLL load failed: A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed.
I have already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the C++ packages, double-checking that the correct version of Scipy is being used for Python 2.7.15 (ABAQUS 2022) and ensuring that the file is on the correct path/directory.
Has anyone else ever had this error or has troubleshooting advice?
Thanks!
This error message is typically related to a conflict between different versions of the same library, or a problem in the library's path. In your case, it seems there's a conflict in the C runtime libraries being used by Abaqus and Scipy's library.
Here are a few approaches to solve this:
C:\SIMULIA\EstProducts\2022\win_b64\tools\SMApy\python2.7\python.exe -m pip install scipy
C:\SIMULIA\EstProducts\2022\win_b64\tools\SMApy\python2.7\python.exe -m pip install scipy
Hopefully, These steps allow you to resolve the conflict and run your Python scripts in Abaqus without this error.

Thanks for your reply, I appreciate the help.
1) Do you know where I can information on how to accomplish this
Environment Variables: Check your system's PATH environment variable. Make sure that Abaqus's Python directory is included in the PATH before other Python installations, if any, to ensure that Abaqus uses the correct Python and associated libraries."
I currently have the path files listed in the attached image.
2) I have installed all relevant (X64 and X86) C++ distributable packages from 2010 to 2022 available here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170#visual-studio-2010-vc-100-sp1-no-longer-supported
Unfortunately I am still getting the same “Runtime Error! Program: C:\… R6034 An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.”
