aMCatNLOError : An error occurred during reweight.

Asked by Khawla Jaffel

Hello experts,

I am trying to generate b-associated production ` p p > h2 > h3 z b b~ [QCD] ` but i get this error at the reweighting stage:
my mg version is 2.6.5

I past the 'reweight_xsec_events.output' files inside one of my SubProcesses/P*/G*/ in here ;
but it's absent for one of my sub-process , I keep submitting this job again and again but it doesn't seems to be a temporary issue running on cluster, I am still missing the reweight_xsec_events.output file for the same SubProcesses/P0_gg_h2_h3zbbx/GF2

Are you sure that this is a loop induced process?
The log that you report are for NLO computation not for loop induced processes.
If you are running this within CMSSW, then the first point to check if that issue is not created by one of the many patch that are used by CMSSW since I have never heard about such type of confusion in the past.

Otherwise your crash seemed to be related to an issue on some fortran library. So I would first check that the node on which you run is correctly configure and maybe try another fortran version to check such type of issue.

Cheers,

Olivier
