    <p>Hi Dmitry, <br>
      <br>
      The script you posted below includes the line:</p>
    <pre style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: rgb(74, 92, 110); font-family: "JetBrains Mono", monospace; font-size: 9.8pt;" class="">/gate/application/noGlobalOutput
</pre>
    <p>The command "noGlobalOutput" is to stop any root files from being
      generated! I think if you remove that line it should work.<br>
      <br>
      Best,<br>
      Cassandra<br>
    </p>
