[Gate-users] Segmentation violation for water geometry

I had a similar issue when the geometry of the phantom (diameter, if your phantom is a sphere) is less than the size of doseActor. Please check that dimension as well.

#yiv4501591694 P {margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;}Hi David,
Thank you for the info and I'm happy to help in any way I can. Here are the details:
- I am using Geant4 10.05.p01 - the "patch01" release from April 2019.
- When I run with/without the viewer, I appear to get the same segfault.
- My operating system is Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS, and my compiler is gcc-7.4.0
- I see that the required dependencies for gate suggest gcc 4.8 to 7.3
- The build type set in cmake was "Release". I have attached the output log files with the appended backtrace in both "Release" and "Debug" mode.
- I have attached the GateMaterials.db file which contains my edits for additional materials. I cannot recall exactly where I copied this file from.
- I am using Gate version 8.2 which I obtained from the tar file on the opengatecollaboration website. Would you suggest that I change over to the git version?
Cheers,Matthew

Hi Matthew and Dimitris,
First: if you manage to get a segfault with Gate (or any other program), then you found a bug, period. No matter how wrong the input, a well-written program should never segfault, it should terminate with a helpful error message that explains which part of your input was problematic. (Unfortunately, it's actually quite easy to get segfaults with Gate, I suspect that users often just don't bother to report of them. It's great that you *do* report it!)
Second: I tried to reproduce this segfault and failed. I do get a crash, but a different one: Qt crashes due to some floating point exception, which seems unrelated to the segfault that you are reporting. When I completely disable the visualization, then Gate runs and terminates normally, no crash.
So... I am going to ask some more details:
- It looks like you are using geant4 10.05, is that the original release (7 December 2018) or the "patch01" release (17 April 2019)?
- If you run without the viewer (comment out all /vis lines, add a /vis/disable line, run without --qt), do you then still get the same segfault, or some other crash?
- What operating system and compiler are you using?
- What build type did you set in cmake? "Release" or something else? If you have some time to burn: could you rerun cmake and set it to "Debug", then reproduce the crash? The backtrace should then also quote filenames and line numbers for the items in Gate.
- There are several different GateMaterials.db files around (it's fine to edit your own, but we should harmonize the db files that we distribute in Gate and GateContrib). Could you send us the one that you are using?
- Which release of Gate are you using? If you got your code directly from github, could you quote to us the output from "git log -n 1", "git branch -l" and "git remote -v"?
Thanks,David B.

Betreff: Re: [Gate-users] Segmentation violation for water geometry Hi Dimitris,
Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, I still encounter the same problem with spaces instead of tabs. I know Qt doesn't work when using tabs in the session command bar but I haven't had any problems using tabs in the macros.
Cheers,Matthew

Try not having tabs, only spaces when you write a command.
I think it will work.
See the attached file, I think it is working.
Cheers,
Dimitris
