Installing Cplex and Connecting Python 3.5.11 API to Cplex

  • 1.  Installing Cplex and Connecting Python 3.5.11 API to Cplex

    Posted Mon October 02, 2023 04:36 AM

    Hi,

    I installed Cplex 2211 on Windows 10, but when I tried to connect it to Python 3.11.5, I noticed that the following folders were missing: "examples," "dependencies," and "docplex." Could someone kindly advise me on how to resolve this issue?
     
    I then proceeded to uninstall Cplex, and now I am attempting to download the academic version of Cplex 2211. However, I'm encountering the following error: "Requested resource is currently unavailable, please try again." Could someone please offer guidance on how to resolve this issue?
    Your kind support is greatly appreciated in advance.
    Regards,
    Ali

    Hello Ali

    The docplex installation is described in C:\Program Files\IBM\ILOG\CPLEX_Studio2211\python\readme.md on a Windows machine.

    To download from the Academic initiative, you need to register for the Academic Initiative using your academic e-mail address. 
    Once you've registered, in order to find CPLEX Optimization Studio: 

    Connect to Academic Initiative with this link:  https://www.ibm.com/academic/home  

    Once logged on, go to this page : https://www.ibm.com/academic/topic/data-science?ach_id=6fe17098-43df-4a9d-8412-3377286841a3  

    Then follow the Download link - it will lead you to the IBM Academic Initiative download link.

    Below "Search options", click on "Text", enter "CPLEX Optimization Studio" as the product name. Then click the search button.

    If you see an error message saying "Selected resource is currently unavailable", clear your browser cache and try again 24 hours later. This issue arises sometimes but is resolved within a business day. 

    regards

    Rory
