Ok. The log file you attached is run_01_tag_1_debug.log. Could you also
look at and attach file
/home/amustaf/packages/MadGraph/MG5_aMC_v2_1_1/Zj_nlo/mcatnlo.log ?

Yes, it uses the Pythia routines when it is linked to Pythia, and they
should never appear when you use Herwig.

Could you go in MCatNLO, do ‘gunzip ../Events/run_01/events.lhe.gz’, and
then try compiling by hand from there, by typing './MCatNLO_MadFKS.inputs'?
This should still fail, but maybe the error message will say something
more clear.

Could you also tell me what are the characteristics of the computer you’re
running on? Mainly operative system and gfortran version.

Cheers.
Paolo
