segmentation fault, exit error 6

#1 Post by tholme » Mon May 26, 2008 12:37 am

I was recently running a normal job that shouldn't have any problems--it was like other jobs I run routinely--and I got a segmentation fault.

Code: Select all

**** Segmentation fault!  Fault address: 0x10

Fault address is 4194288 bytes below the first valid
mapping boundary, which is at 0x400000.

This may have been caused by a struct access through a null pointer.
mpiexec: Warning: task 0 died with signal 6 (Aborted).
mpiexec: Warning: tasks 1-23 died with signal 15 (Terminated).


What is this? Should I just try again?

Thanks for your advice.

please try once again, if the job crashes again, debug your run to check where the segmentation fault occured.
