Found 0 correctly terminated jobs

Asked by Benedikt Maier

Dear experts,

I just downloaded/setup the new MG5_v2_1_1 version (had v2_1_0 before) and tried to generate some process.
In this case it was

MG5_aMC>generate p p > t j $$ w+ w- [QCD]

but it throws an error (see below).
In fact, I get the same error with all possible processes, also for e.g. p p > t t~[QCD].

For each of the subprocesses, I get:

INFO:

It seems it is not generating the P*/GF* directories for some reason.
And I think this is due to the LHAPDF interfacing (I'm using the CT10 PDF in this case). With internal pdfs, it works!

But I don't know what I did wrong.
In the mg5_configuration.txt, I have specified

lhapdf = /afs/cern.ch/user/b/bmaier/private/LHAPDF_591_new/bin/lhapdf-config #

and in that main folder "LHAPDF_591_new", there is a share/lhapdf/PDFset folder containing all the relevant PDFs.

Is this some compiling issue? I'm using

/afs/cern.ch/cms/slc5_amd64_gcc462/external/gcc/4.6.2/bin/gcc

and it worked with v2_1_0!

Thank you for your help!

Regards,
Benedikt

Hi Benedikt,
the warning you get here

INFO: Result for check_poles:
WARNING: 0 points have been tried
is suspect.

Can you please go into any of the SubProcesses/P0*/ directories,
run ./check_poles by hand and tell me what you get?

Also, are you using a model with the massless b (and the b included in the p and j multiparticle)?

Thanks a lot,

Marco

Hi Marco,

when I run a ./check_poles, I only get a

[lxplus405] /afs/cern.ch/user/b/bmaier/private/MG5_aMC_v2_1_1/test/SubProcesses/P0_bu_td > ./check_poles
Segmentation fault

This is the proc_card:

import model loop_sm-zeromass_ckm
define j = g u c d s u~ c~ d~ s~
define p = j b b~
define l+ = e+ mu+ ta+
define l- = e- mu- ta-
define vl = ve vm vt
define vl~ = ve~ vm~ vt~
generate p p > t j $$ w+ w- [QCD]

But I get the same error for ttbar production in the standard loop_sm. However, this error occurs only when I want to use an external LHAPDF. I tried p p > t t~ [QCD] with the native cteq6m, and it runs perfectly.

Thanks,

Benedikt

Can you try using the
loop_sm-no_b_mass model?
Thanks,

Is there anything to be aware of when interfacing the LHAPDF program except for the things I did already (explained in my first post)?

Thanks a lot,

Can you please send me your proc/param/run cards (to <email address hidden>, not to the launchpad email)?
What version of lhapdf are you using?
Cheers,

Marco

Hi Marco,

thanks, I sent you the cards.
I'm using LHAPDF 5.9.1, but just a second ago I tried with LHAPDF 5.8.9 - and this works!

I do not understand why! There is no difference in the way I configured 589 and 591 …

Do you have any idea what the reason for this could be?

Cheers,

Benedikt

no idea…
can you please diff the PDFsets.index files in the two versions?
Thanks,

Marco
