Hello Andre, > collect2: fatal error: ld terminated with signal 9 [Killed]
Is unfortunately fairly generic and can be caused by multiple issues. If there is any more detailed error message above then it may give a hint as to what is going on. See eg here for which files may be helpful: https://einsteintoolkit.org/support.html#general-guidelines-for-questions Quite often signal 9 (killed) happens when the operating system terminates the compiler when it eg uses too much memory. This can happen in particular if you compile in a virtual machine (including WSL2 for Windows). Cactus needs several GB of memory to compile You can try and see if compiling serially using `-j1` would help since it would reduce to total amount of memory used at any point in time: VERBOSE=yes simfactory/bin/sim build -j1 2>&1 | tee make.log Yours, Roland On Sat, 26 Oct 2024 00:05:43 +0200 A C <andre2m...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello, > I am writing to seek your assistance regarding a sudden error I > encountered while running a cell in the Cactus Tutorial.
