Problems with h2root

Newbie
#1

Hello,
I installed Root Version 6.22/06 using homebrew on MacOS 10.15.7. I need to convert hbook files to root files with h2root. I get the following error message when I try to convert a file:
Converting directory //example

>>>>>> CALL HRZKEY(IDN)

Converting RWN with ID= 1, nentries = 3324

*** Break *** bus error

A .root file is created but it is empty.
Does anyone have any idea how to save that problem? Your help is greatly appreciated

Maybe @couet can give it a try

Can you post your .hbook file having problems ?

I could not solve the problem with the installed binary version on my mac. It seems to be a problem concerning the installation of ROOT on my laptop.
I did manage to convert the files on a machine running ubuntu.

Thanks for your help.

I think that would be interesting to see if it’s really an issue on Mac, so we can try to fix it…

If you give me access to your .hbook file I can try to convert it on my IMac.

% h2root evt_charged_exp55_r0_s0.hbook
