Robert, No, Just launched and ran the configuration provided in the nex2gini help, and worked fine. Here is our X86 configuration: % uname -a SunOS lenny.unidata.ucar.edu 5.9 Generic_117172-10 i86pc i386 i86pc % limit cputime unlimited filesize unlimited datasize unlimited stacksize 8480 kbytes coredumpsize unlimited descriptors 256 memorysize unlimited If the program dumps while launching, it probably signals that you don't have enough memory. Otherwise, it it dumps after you are starting to "run", then I'd suspect a parsing error, or string overflow from a file path. This was compiled using: % f77 -V NOTICE: Invoking /usr/local/SUNWspro/bin/f90 -f77 -ftrap=%none -V f90: Sun Fortran 95 8.0 DEV 2004/05/13 % cc -V cc: Sun C 5.6 DEV 2004/05/13 Steve Chiswell Unidata User SUpport >From: Robert Mullenax <address@hidden> >Organization: UCAR/Unidata >Keywords: 200411051608.iA5G8jvV025444 >Steve, > >I am trying to run the Unidata GEMPAK5.7.3 binary of nex2gini >on Solaris 9 x86 9/04 and it core dumps immediately.
