Segmentation violation while using Delphes

Aayushi14 · November 27, 2018, 7:33am

Hi,
I have installed root 6.08 on my laptop (ubuntu). It is working fine with pythia . Then I installed delphes software to get .root output from .hepmc file. But when I run delphes command (./DelphesSTDHEP cards/delphes_card_CMS.tcl output.root input.hep)
I got segmentation violation after following warning messages
This is entire terminal message:

Hi Aayushi,

did you build Delphes yourself against your ROOT installation?

Cheers,
D

Aayushi14 · November 27, 2018, 9:20am

Hi,
I first instalIed root on my laptop and then used these commands to install Delphes:
wget http://cp3.irmp.ucl.ac.be/downloads/Delphes-3.4.1.tar.gz
tar -zxf Delphes-3.4.1.tar.gz
cd Delphes-3.4.1
make

Is there any path to be needed to add in bashrc except these:
source /home/aayushi/aayushi/root/bin/thisroot.sh
export ROOTSYS=/home/aayushi/aayushi/root
export PATH=$PATH:$ROOTSYS/bin
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$ROOTSYS/lib

Thanks
Aayushi

Danilo · November 27, 2018, 9:49am

Hi Aayushi,

yes, LD_LIBRARY_PATH should point to the library directory of delphes.

Cheers,
D

Aayushi14 · November 27, 2018, 10:21am

Hi dpiparo
Did you mean

export DELPHESLOCATION=/home/aayushi/aayushi/DelphesTutorial/delphes
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$DELPHESLOCATION/lib

But when I open delphes install location, I didn’t found any library directory.

Thanks
Aayushi
