Hi Sonal!

 

I agree with Nicolas!

I had similar problems due to some incompatibilities between GATE versions
and the ROOT framework.

Check your installation versions!!

 

Cheers,

Hi Sonal,

 

 

for the current version of GATE (3.1.2), the recommended version of ROOT 

is 5.14. You can find this ROOT distribution at the following link

http://root.cern.ch/root/Version514.html

 

 

The error message generated by GATE suggests that the problem is caused 

by an incompatibility between the GATE and the ROOT versions that are 

installed on your system.

Therefore it is most likely that the problem will be solved when you 

install this particular ROOT distribution.

GATE had been tested with this version and no error messages of this 

nature were reported.

 

Please let us know about the outcome of your GATE simulations after 

installing ROOT 5.14

 

Best regards

Nicolas
