multi_run problem.

Asked by Cherry Parba

I am doing multi_run 70, to minimize the number of events per run. But unfortunately, After the 28th run in the multi_run, I end up with an error and the simulation stop. Is there a way to continue the simulation ?

Which version are you using?
And which error did you face?

A long standing issue was with the number of thread hitting the limit of the system in such multi-run.
This is normally fixed in the latest LTS (or normal) version of the code.

Cheers,

Olivier

Second option is to update your version of MG5aMC and it should be able to handle more consecutive run.
