A 'AnisoHeatConductionMaterial' is not a registered object.

[hamedattariani]

Moose was compiled successfully and passed all tests.
I only replaced the AnisoHeatConductionMaterial.C and .h files with the following versions.
https://github.com/idaholab/moose/pull/22028/files

I created an application, changed the heat transfer module to "yes" in the makefile, and compiled it. It gave me the executable files.
Now, if I use the "AnisoHeatConductionMaterial" in the input script, it gives me the following error.

*** ERROR ***
A 'AnisoHeatConductionMaterialM' is not a registered object.

If you are trying to find this object in a dynamically loaded library, make sure that
the library can be found either in your "Problem/library_path" parameter or in the
MOOSE_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.

I checked the metrials_Unity.C file in moose/modules/heat_transfer/build folder and the material was listed in the file:

#include"/home/hamed/projects/moose/modules/heat_transfer/src/materials/AnisoHeatConductionMaterial.C"
#include"/home/hamed/projects/moose/modules/heat_transfer/src/materials/ElectricalConductivity.C"

#include"/home/hamed/projects/moose/modules/heat_transfer/src/materials/ThermalCompliance.C"
#include"/home/hamed/projects/moose/modules/heat_transfer/src/materials/ThermalSensitivity.C"

Any suggestion?

When you modified it, did you modify it in heat_conduction or heat_transfer? That PR is quite old

What is the output of git status in your moose directory?

If you're on Mac, please paste the output of otool -L your_executable | grep heat (replacing your_executable with the name of your executable), and if on Linux the output of ldd your_executable | grep heat

libheat_transfer-opt.so.0 => /home/hamed/projects/moose/modules/heat_transfer/lib/libheat_transfer-opt.so.0 (0x00007ff4dae00000)

This all looks fine to me. My only remaining suggestion is to try running make clobberall in your application and then building again.

'AnisoHeatConductionMaterialM' is there a typo with an extra M at the end?

[hamedattariani]

Thanks for checking that. That was not the issue. I tried multiple ways to fix the registration. One method was to define it as a custom-made kernel with a different name (AnisoHeatConductionMaterialM), but that did not work, either. The error stems from that try.

I resolved it by simply changing the "registerMooseObject("HeatConductionApp", AnisoHeatConductionMaterial);" to "registerMooseObject("HeatTranferApp", AnisoHeatConductionMaterial);" in the C file.

[GiudGiud]

ah yes that is definitely the correct fix. Thank you for reporting back
