Dear Roger,

apart from Francois' suggestion using strace you can also check the
space available in /tmp, the amount of memory available on these
machines (using the command 'free') and run memcheck to test the
memories health.

Regards,
Tim

OK, here is a strange one: I have 4 client machines (3 absolutely
identical hardware) all running ccp4i from a central server and 2
of the 4 machines (always the same 2) will fail when running a
certain scala job with a "child killed" error. I can run the same
job on the 2 "good" machines. All the machines call the same ccp4
source file in .tcshrc. I'm stumped. It's probably some sort of
cryptic permissions error or something like that. Anyone seen
anything like this and have some clue as to the origin of the
crash? AFAIK, it only happens running scala in 6.3.0. The home
directories for users are served via NFS, but that should be the
same for all machines.
