Hi,
I am running VASP on a Cray XT5. I have no problems compiling the code, but when I try to run a simple test system, I get the following output file:

Warning: no access to tty (Bad file descriptor).
Thus no job control in this shell.
running on 8 nodes
distr: one band on 1 nodes, 8 groups
vasp.4.6.25 17Sep03 complex
POSCAR found : 3 types and 53 ions
LDA part: xc-table for Pade appr. of Perdew
POSCAR, INCAR and KPOINTS ok, starting setup
FFT: planning ... 1
reading WAVECAR
entering main loop
N E dE d eps ncg rms rms(c)
Application 591331 exit codes: 139
Application 591331 resources: utime 0, stime 0

_pmii_daemon(SIGCHLD): PE 3 exit signal Segmentation fault
[NID 8]Apid 591331: initiated application termination
_pmii_daemon(SIGCHLD): PE 7 exit signal Segmentation fault

When I am in the directory containing the vasp executable and I type
grep pmii *
I get:
Binary file vasp matches

Do you have any idea what could be causing this problem?
Thank you,
Kristen

Funny I'm on Franklin and I get the same error sometimes... I have no idea why
