Does Pyomo5.5 support gurobi7.5 or gurobi8.0 directly?

Question

I want to use pyomo5.5 to call solver gurobi7.5 or gurobi8.0, but found that it returns error when call the solver directly.

If I use gurobi_ampl7.5 or 8.0, it will work.

So, does that mean pyomo5.5 can't support to call gurobi directly?

Answer 1

For Pyomo to call Gurobi directly (through the python interface), the package gurobipy needs to be importable from the python environment in which Pyomo is running.

Try following the Python interface installation instructions from the Gurobi website: http://www.gurobi.com/documentation/8.0/quickstart_mac/the_gurobi_python_interfac.html
