[Mesa-users] Segmentation fault error when running someone's inlists

[Rob Farmer]

Seems to be a typo on the website,

you want to find the line:
if (open_close_log) close(io)         (not the line: if (write_flag) write
(io,*))
and replace it with:
if (open_close_log .and. write_flag) close(io)

in $MESA_DIR/star/private/history.f90

Then run ./mk in $MESA_DIR ( and run ./mk in your work folder)
