On which Linux are you running?

[Sarvesh Agarwal]

its RHEL 6.2

[Anders Blom]

This is uncommon... Can you try to check the dependencies of the ATK binaries. That is, "cd" into the ATK installation directory (type "ls" to make sure you have atkpython and vnl subdirectories here) and type

Code

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=atkpython/lib ldd atkpython/bin/atk_exec | grep "not found"
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=atkpython/lib ldd atkpython/lib/python2.7/_NLEngine.so | grep "not found"

Also, perhaps, just maybe, this will help: http://quantumwise.com/support/faq/164.

attached are the steps i followed... plz. check

[Anders Blom]

Was ATK installed by root? Check permissions on all files. The last message is strange.

EDIT: Ok, turns out that's actually how it's supposed to be. So we're back to trying if LD_PRELOAD helps, can you check that?

[Sarvesh Agarwal]

OK!!! here are the commands I followed

[Anders Blom]

Please see link above. The LD_PRELOAD command needs to be defined when you run the calculation which segfaulted. So, do

export LD_PRELOAD="libGLU.so libstdc++.so.6"

This is wild guess to be honest, but it's worth trying since it solves a segfault on another Linux.

thanku sir !!! it actually worked and now simulations are running
