[Wien] Fw: BoltzTraP - case.intrans

[Laurence Marks]

Let me expand slightly. A SIGSEV is an error where the code has got
corrupted and has tried to do something like write in protected
memory. This is most often because an array is out of bounds.
Unfortunately just saying that you got a SIGSEV does not help anyone
-- we cannot diagnose from this. Things to do (stated before):
a) Check all the input arguments.
b) Turn on debug options for the code, particularly traceback.
c) Try and find the line where the code is crashing.
d) Put a print statement in before where it crashes.

Most often it is a). Sometimes it is something else, but we cannot
help without you doing some work to narrow it down first. (And I can't
help since I've never used this particular code.)

According to user guide of this program, there are to two schemes to obtain DOS: HISTO/TETRA (histogram/thetrahedron sampling). I want to do my calculations with TETRA scheme. But when I am trying to run BoltzTraP code (with TERTA), after some time of working I receive an error message: SIGSEGV, segmentation fault occurred. What is the reason of this?
