I dowloaded MG5_aMC_v_1_1 on my Scientific Linux machine, and I got following error message when I generated process.

Command "add process p p > e+ e- [QCD] @2" interrupted with error:

Hi,

We don't have such version number. In any case, could you
1) retry with the latest version.
2) Be sure that you have gfortran installed on your system. (if you have another compiler that you want to use, you need to specify it in input/mg5_configuration.txt)

Cheers,

Olivier

Thank for your reply.

I installed the latest version of MG5 and I intalled the gfortran 4.4.7, but I still got the following error:

Command "launch add" interrupted with error:
aMCatNLOError : In order to be able to run at NLO MadGraph5_aMC@NLO, you need to have gfortran 4.6 or later installed.
 gfortran 4.4.7 2012031 has been detected
 Note that You can still run all MadEvent run without any problem!
Please report this bug on https://bugs.launchpad.net/madgraph5

Yes indeed if you want to do any NLO computation you need gcc4.6 as clearly stated. This is not needed for LO computation.

I wonder if there is gcc 4.6 or higher for Scientific Linux 6.4. I searched but I couldn't find it.
If you know where I can download it, please let me know.

Thank you

Hi,
gfortran higher than 4.4 is available on SLC (5 and 6), at least at CERN.
Please see
