Dear PandaRooters,

since my last update of pandaRoot from SVN I am getting the following error-message when I run runMvdSim.C before my root system stops working:

G4MagIntegratorDriver::OneGoodStep: Stepsize underflow in Stepper
Step's start x=7.74619 and end x= 7.74619 are equal !!
Due to step-size= 2.28754e-16 . Note that input step was 0.228754

This happens for various event generators and sub-detectors.

With GEANT3 everything seems to run smoothly.

Has anyone an idea what is going wrong?

Thanks

Tobias

P.S.: At a different run I got the following more complete error message:
G4MagIntegratorDriver::OneGoodStep: Stepsize underflow in Stepper
Step's start x=1.05216 and end x= 1.05216 are equal !!

Hallo Tobias,

Is there anything special to do to reproduce this! with the trunk on 64 bit linux and MAC it is not reproducible! but I think this bug is related to the new field map classes! can you please tell me on which system you have this problem and maybe you can try to use a constant field and see if the problem still there or if it is not much work for you to use the old maps!

regards

Mohammad

Hi I'm using the gsi installation sarge32 linux

and i'm using the following field configuration
as usual(old filed maps) and i get the same error
as Tobias.
For me it has been working before.
So what is going on wrong?

PndMultiField *fField= new PndMultiField();
PndTransMap *map= new PndTransMap("TransMap", "R");
PndDipoleMap *map1= new PndDipoleMap("DipoleMap", "R");
PndSolenoidMap *map2= new PndSolenoidMap("SolenoidMap", "R");
fField->AddField(map);
fField->AddField(map1);
fField->AddField(map2);
fRun->SetField(fField);

Cheers
alicia.

Hi,

I managed to reproduce this only on Debian Sarge (gcc 3.3.5), it has to do with some initialization problems! any way I corrected some stuf in base and field and for me it is working now on Sarge, please test it and let me know!
