[gate-users] Simulation haulted from random seed initialization

[Ananth Ravi]

Hello Gaters,

I recently altered my macro so that I would initialize each of my 
simulations from different random seed files.
However now my simulations crash after a few thousand events, the 
following is an excerpt of the error message:

I have read a couple of the past topics that dealt with this, with the 
heading "random seed initialization".  Going by
the suggestion in this thread i tried to run the simulation with and 
without the  '/random/setDirectoryName ./'

Is this a problem with the way i generate my random numbers or something 
completely different.
