Title: Problem with test example
Post by: Fnew on August 19, 2014, 01:02:33 AM

Hi there,
As I am a new user, I apologize if my question might be naive.
I encounter the same problem, running the example file immediately after installation of feappv on my virtual machine ubuntu.

Could you please elaborate what you mean with compiling the file? I tried to run the file with this command:
feappv -iIblock
and I got the segmentation error.

Cheers,
Fnew

Can you post screen shots of what is printed after the build?
Also a screenshot of what happens when you type just "feappv".
If it does not crash at that point, enter Iblock for the input file
and accept the defaults and then report what happens.

Thanks for the reply.
Please find in file named screen_shot what happens when I type feappv.
The file screen_shot2 shows the result of simulation.

What do you mean with building? Do you mean the result of what is written when I write make install to install the software in linux?

Thanks for your time,
Fnew

I would guess that you have built the program with the incorrect pointer sizes.   In makefile.in you have to choose
between integer4 and integer8.  I think you make have picked incorrectly.  Compile and run the attached program
and it will tell you how you should be configuring your build.

Thanks for the help.
The problem was the ipr. Now it runs with the following message:
       R U N N I N G    F E A P p v    P R O B L E M    N O W
X Error of failed request:  BadName (named color or font does not exist)
  Major opcode of failed request:  45 (X_OpenFont)
  Serial number of failed request:  327
  Current serial number in output stream:  328

Also another problem exists. The feap execution window (the new one), appears for a second and suddenly closes.
Do I need to have any special setting (similar to X-server settings for displays) or any thing?

Ubuntu has a terrible set of default items.  You are missing the Helvetica fonts.  See the following thread and solution options.
