Hi, Nicolai, it seems to me to be this bug I reported in March: https://bugs.launchpad.net/python-meep/+bug/947884 I did not have time yet to investigate why it crashes. Filip
2012/6/25, Walter, Nicolai <[email protected]>: > Hi everyone, > I have a weird problem using meep-mpi/meep on a 32-core,64gb RAM, 64bit > system. > It seems that after I started meep-mpi e.g. with 8 processes, one or > sometimes two processes will leap behind in run time. > When meep should be finished, all processes go to sleep except those two. > They will run indefinitely and must be terminated by hand. > If I check the meep output, sometimes everything looks fine (last line: > elapsed run time=....) but sometimes it stops right after harminv! > This problem occurs just occasionally, sometimes everything works just as it > should. > > I have experienced the same problem with meep, so i think it's not the MPI. > I already checked for hardware issues and found none, > i also ran the very same files on an 8-core 32bit system and they worked > just fine! > > So maybe it's some problem with my harminv installation on 64bit? > > If anyone has experienced similar issues or has any hints i would be very > thankful! > > Best regards, > Nicolai > _______________________________________________ > meep-discuss mailing list > [email protected] > http://ab-initio.mit.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/meep-discuss > _______________________________________________ meep-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://ab-initio.mit.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/meep-discuss
