[Mesa-users] MESA installation EOS test fail

[Warrick Ball]

Hi,

First, it would help if you followed the instructions under "What should you do if MESA did not install successfully?":

     http://mesa.sourceforge.net/prereqs.html#what-should-you-do-if-mesa-did-not-install-successfully

Did you search the mailing list for users who had similar issues?  Also, these details would help:

     Describe your computer (machine type, operating system, operating system version).

     What is the output of each of the following commands?

     uname -a
     gfortran -v
     echo $MESASDK_ROOT
     echo $PATH
     echo $MESA_DIR

That said, how much RAM does your system have?  MESA basically requires about 8GB.  I'd hazard a guess that the EoS tester is running out and therefore getting killed by the operating system.

Cheers,
Warrick
