[Trilinos-Users] [trilinos-users] Segmentation fault in stratimikos example

[Dane Wallinga]

Thanks for the suggestions.  Evidently some of the stratimikos tests are failing, though I don't know how I missed that when I first compiled everything.  It's only the Belos test, however, and even then only a few of them; so I'll look at those more closely and see if I can figure anything out.   Regarding the segmentation faults, valgrind would make it seem that Teuchos is trying to delete references to empty memory; I was under the impression that RCP was supposed to handle all of that, but what I really can't figure out is how the state of my program would differ from the given example. The only change in execution is that I'm reading the linear problem from a matrix gallery rather than an external file. But again, thanks for the help; I'm thinking perhaps I should have better familiarized myself with C++ before trying to tackle Trilinos.

Dane,
 
I would suggest that you configure with 
--enable-teuchos-debug and then compile and run again.  This might help 
catch the problem.  Also, if you are running on Linux, you can run valgrind 
to diagnose the error.
 
One question, when you type 'make runtests-serial', do 
all of the stratimikos tests pass?

example


I'm relatively new to Trilinos, and c++ for that matter, and I've been  encountering some problems while working with the simple_stratimikos_example in Stratimikos. Running the compiled .exe, I  receive a segmentation fault when I try to specify Belos as the linear solver  in the parameters xml. Is there any obvious reason why Belos would cause such  an error where Amesos and AztecOO do not?  Still more puzzling is the  situation that arises when I modify the example to use initialize the linear  system from a CrsMatrixGallery rather than a .mtx file; the problems with  Belos persist, but now I receive faults with Ameses and AztecOO as well.   What's puzzling is that the program does successfully return a solution, only  throwing the Segmentation Fault when it comes time to output "_ of the tests  checked out"  While I'm sure this description is a bit vague, it would  help debugging if I at least had some idea of what kind of segmentation fault  would
 arise that doesn't significantly affect the program  output.
