[DFTB-Plus-User] Error message of "severe (174): SIGSEGV, segmentation fault occurred"

[#WU XING#]

Dear All users,

 

I run DFTB+ on a machine of Darwin Linux Cluster, consisting
x86_64architecture. My model consists ~300 atoms so it is very large. I
set the run time to 240 hours, but it stops after 15 hours. And the
error message is the following:

 

forrtl: severe (174): SIGSEGV, segmentation fault occurred

I contact with the machine technicians, and they suggest me to contact
with the author of the program because they do not know the meaning of
the error message.

 

Also the following message is found in the output file.

 

Resources List:            nodes=2:ppn=2,walltime=240:00:00

Resources Used:
cput=15:05:48,mem=269772kb,vmem=520196kb,walltime=14:49:16

 

 

Could anyone help me to explain what is the meaning of that error
message?

 

Sincerely Yours
