Pre-crash status

[anonymous]

Hi Sherpa Team,

I have just tried to generate Z + 0,1,2,3,4 jets events in Sherpa-1.0.11 but when Sherpa generates its libraries it complains with this error:

In String_Handler::Complete : this may take some time.... Single_Process::CheckLibraries : Looking for a suitable library. This may take some time. Sherpa: throws std::exception St9exception ... Exception_Handler::GenerateStackTrace(..): Generating stack trace (adapted from ROOT version 3.10) {

Actually when i generate Z + 0,1,2,3 jets i am able to get convenient hepmc ouput and everythings is ok but the library in case "P2_6" complains one channel and it gives an error.

Hi Altan,

I believe that Z + 4 jets is quite memory consuming (> 1GB). Can you make sure that you are not simply running out of memory?

Otherwise, can you send us a tarball of your setup files? Either attach them to this bug report or send them to ​support@sherpa-mc.de .

Cheers, Frank
