NeurophRM operator
Contributor I
Hi everybody, I'm new in this forum and I hope I'm doing everything right... 
I'm trying to use neural network built with Neuroph Studio in RapidMiner. It seems I've installed the plug-in correctly since I can finde the neurophRM oparator but when I make the process running I get a Porcess failure error message even if the setup does not seem to contain any obvious errors...
Can anybody give me a hand with this?
Thanks a lot!!!

I don't know said extension, but what you generally need to do in such a case is start RapidMiner from the commandline so you can see the errors which do pop up in the background when such a message dialog occurs. Navigate to your RapidMiner/scripts folder and launch via RapidMinerGUI.bat or RapidMinerGUI depending on your OS. Then you should see an error during process execution in the console. If it's inside the operator of the extension (first line of the error says something along the lines of "com.neuroph...neurophRM.java") you will have to contact the author of the extension. Otherwise you can post the error here and we will have a look at it.
