This may also be a problem with running it on an Alpha. We haven't seen any developers actively talk about compiling OpenDX on the Alpha and do any specific debugging on it. If you have someone in house doing this, you may want to have them try and run the debugger on the executive and try and determine where the core dump is happening.

Yes, it's consistently reproducible. I am executing a dx program that someone else wrote. It's fairly large. I'm not sure I could break it down to a smaller program.

At first I was unable to run an example dx program because of an error attaching a shared memory segment (see the "cannot attach shared memory" thread on this board). It was suggested that I try setting DXSHMEMSEGMAX to 8. This fixed the memory problem. But now when I execute this other dx program, I get the connection problem.

So your remark about running into memory constraints is probably relevant. I'm just not sure what to do about it. I am running on an 8 processor Compaq AlphaServer with 8GB of shared memory. My user memory limit is 1 GB.
