I am trying to plot the chi square contour but I got the following error

I should I fix it?

Hi,

You should just use option “F”, when calling TH1::Fit. You are fitting a polynomial function and by default in this case you are using a linear fitter and in that case gMinuit is not created.
If you change line 31 to be:
h1->Fit("pol1","F");

your macro will work fine
