Pollination tab not showing in grasshopper after finalizing pollination installation

Hi i just installed the grasshopper plug-in 1.60.5 but when i go in grasshopper (Rhino8) i don’t see the pollination tab anywhere. Am i not following a special installation instruction ?

Thank you

Hi @oalh, welcome to the forum!

Did you get any errors when you opened Rhino/Grasshopper?

Can you check and see if this file exists on your computer? C:\Program Files\pollination\plugin\8.0\Pollination\Pollination.GH.gha

Hi @mostapha,
Thanks for replying,

It didn’t show any errors while or after installing neither when opening Rhino/Grasshopper.

Yes there is, it is here: “C:\Program Files\pollination\plugin\8.0\Pollination-GH\Pollination.GH.gha”

I’m not sure what might be happening here. Mingbo, any thoughts?

Hi @mostapha @mingbo,

I installed all the ladybug tools by single-click pollination.exe. But I encountered the similar issue as @oalh did. Moreover, there are many missing Ironbug components with errors showing:

When I ran the simulation with openstudio, it showed "Solution exception:Failed to run OpenStudio CLI: " or directly crashed. I use Rhino 7 and it has updated to the latest version.

Hi @oalh and @youknowleft,

Can you try to use the Rhino installer instead? It seems to solve the problem for other users.
