Do not use your own main program

Your file is a main program that does not have a TApplication.
Move out from the syndom of implementing your own main program
and simply run it from standard ROOT as

root > .x movie.cxx+

I am sorry, but I get more or less the same error, using your version:


Now reading slice: 44
Now reading slice: 45
Now reading slice: 46
Now reading slice: 47
Now reading slice: 48
Now reading slice: 49
Now reading slice: 50
Error: Symbol G__exception is not defined in current scope :0:
Error: type G__exception not defined FILE: LINE:0
(int)0
*** Interpreter error recovered ***
root [1] .q

Could you identify which version you are using?
Could you run under gdb

gdb root.exe gdb > run
then when you get the crash, report the result of

gdb > bt
Rene

Starting program:
/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/app/releases/ROOT/5.24.00b/slc4_amd64_gcc34/root/bin/root.e$

The result of the crash is:

Now reading slice: 48
Now reading slice: 49
Now reading slice: 50
Error: Symbol G__exception is not defined in current scope :0:
Error: type G__exception not defined FILE: LINE:0

Did you run with my file without any changes?
Did you check that you have enough disk space on your system?
I am afraid that you will have to be more verbose to get help ::slight_smile:

Hello

  1. I have enough space (~35GB)
  2. I used your version with no changes
  3. I would like to help you with a more detailed log, but I am not used to gdn
    What can we do? On your system can you produce more than 50 plots like me?
    Thanks

Hi,

sorry for the long waiting time! I have an ancient web page explaining how to use GDB muenster.de/~naumana/rootgdb.html - I think it should still be valid. So give that a try; we’ll at least need to see the backtrace.

Cheers, Axel.
