    Hello!

    I am using CPLEX 8, 9.1 and 11 on different computer.

    Sometimes it happens, that there is something unsolvable in my system. CPLEX 8 and 9.1 run until the set time limit is reached and put out text "could not solve it within time".

    But with CPLEX 11 I have a problem, because when there is some error (e.g. a condition in my system is violated), then it writes me a line
    "CPX-I-INFO , Rechenzeitvorgabe:  20.0 sec"
    with the time until I stop the simulation. And CPLEX writes it very fast, so the log-file gets big in some seconds (til gigabyte). Also CPLEX did not stopped, it only wrote the line until I broke up the simulation.


    What is the problem? Is there an flag I can use to prevent this error?

    There are no CPLEX messages written in a language other than English, so the messages you are reporting must be coming from whatever program is calling CPLEX routines.
