Doug, Chao,
if I am not mistaken, the "module purge" is automatically added when setting up the module configuration via Project Manager -> Synchronize -> Manage... -> Use an environment management system...
Also, in this setup, modules are loaded in a prescribed order which - at least sometimes - defies dependencies among the modules. I am also running on a system where I am hit by this setup.
My work around is as follows. First define modules in a "best can" way through "Use an environment management system...". Then tick the "Manually specify ..." box just below. I am getting a window showing "module purge; module load ...; module load ..." in a single line. I can then edit this module set up string. --- Finally I am adding a "module list" at the rightmost end of it - because the environment configuration script /tmp/ptpscript_xxyyzz is no longer printed when doing a manual specification.
Hope that helps ! --
