Dear Deepika,

   Like you see, the directory is already wrong at this stage:

#   pseudo directory:      /pseudo

It should be what you defined in the file 'environment_variables', 
PSEUDO_DIR=/home/bramha/espresso/pseudo
Are you sure that you source (= the ". <path>environment_variable" line in 
'run_example') the correct file?

     Greetings,

        apsi
