It works fine for me. Could you provide some more details about output files and error?

from nastran-95.

This is the complete output file that i obtain from running in the terminal "nastran d01011a.inp"
the output file is named "d01011a.inp.out".

It is likely that either your installation or unzipped file went corrupt...I cannot reproduce your output. Even the USER FATAL MESSAGE 8020 is not found in MSSG.TXT, but it might be outdated compared to the system. I have attached what you should get in a zip file. I modified the output file extension to f06 (MSC/NASTRAN standard).
d01011a.zip

from nastran-95.

It appears that the problem is with the version 19.10 of Ubuntu.... I have tried it on a machine with installed Ubuntu 16.04 and it worked fine.
I leave this comment to help other users with useful information, I have no technical skills to even figure out what kind of problem it is

from nastran-95.

from nastran-95.

I did nothing more than:
1-"sudo apt install nastran"

then i saved d01011a.inp on a usb drive and run in that folder
"nastran d01011a.inp"

On 16.04 it worked fine, on 19.10 i got that errors

from nastran-95.

Good to now. I tested it on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (32bit), Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS (64bit), freeBSD 12.0 and even the Ubuntu App for Windows 10. All of them work.

Ran into this exact same issue at work. The proposed solution (switching distro) isn't exactly necessary... I think it's a libgfortran issue. By switching to an older Ubuntu release, I think you're actually forcing yourselves to use an older version of libgfortran by default.

I think not many people are getting this issue yet because most distros aren't using the latest gcc build, but I think it'll be more common with time if my theory is correct.

Maybe NASTRAN relies on some undefined behavior on gfortran's part, I don't. Just know that you don't have to switch distros, just compile an older gfortran from source or get it from package archives.

This is "solved" apparently, but I'd really like to know what makes NASTRAN incompatible with newer gfortran releases. Should we compile a table of compatible gcc releases for now?

• 7.5.0 known not to produce this issue
• 10.1.0 know to produce this issue

from nastran-95.

from nastran-95.

I'm using the makefile from this repo, which contains all the flags you mentioned, and also had to use -fallow-invalid-boz in order for it to compile, so it can't be those flags.

The only way we could get rid of this error was by using a much older release of gcc/gfortran. It would be desirable to find a way round this, as changes in ABIs could make it actually impossible to run them on newer kernel releases (just like you can't run GCC 4 anymore because 5 included a C++ ABI change, so kernels compiled with GCC 5+ can't run GCC 4). Being stuck with older GCC releases is a ticking time bomb.

from nastran-95.

Following this on comp.lang.fortran, I suspect that the problem is '\r'
(carriage return) characters in input files.

They are usual for Windows input, and not for Unix/Linux. If they come through
to the input routine, they will be invalid characters. It might be that libgfortran
changed its input processing.

Otherwise: tr -d '\r' < infile > outfile

will remove them, though usually not overwriting infile.

from nastran-95.

It seems that in addition to reading the specified input file, it also reads other files.

There are files in the um and rf directories that have ****SBST in them, and also have '\r'
in them.

from nastran-95.

rf/DISP1 has this line:
****SBST 1, 3

from nastran-95.

and '\r' in column 16?

from nastran-95.

Actually, closer to:

****SBST 1, 3

It looks like the 3 is in column 16, but maybe it counts wrong.

In any case, the files do have '\r' in them.

from nastran-95.

Under windows 10, I use NotePad++'s Eidt/EOL Conversion to switch the file between Windows/Unix style. But still the problem could not be solved.

um/RFMT.TXT

from nastran-95.

I changed all.
um/RFMT.TXT is user manual. Should be all right.

Maybe need to change it into full 80 character a line.

from nastran-95.

This was posted to the comp.lang.fortran newsgroup, which is where I found out about it,
and suggested someone to put a line like:

  WRITE(NOUT,*)  ISTATE, ITYPE, ICHAR(K)

after the WRITE statement at line 81 in xrgdev.f

This prints out a little more of the context at the time of the error.

It doesn't seem like anyone ever tried it.

from nastran-95.

I tried to add that line. When building, there is an error:
ar: lib/libnas.a: Malformed archive

I have to delete libnas.a first, then build. But it seems there is no change in the output F06 file.

Then I noticed xrgdev goes into lib/libnasmis.a, So I delete all the libs, then build.

After this, the F06 file doesn't have 'USER FATAL MESSAGE 8020' any more. I'll check if the result is right now.

To conclude, Sometimes, even you add an empty line, may also result in remove this wild error situation.

from nastran-95.

I did what you did, run from the terminal "nastran d01011a.inp" in that folder. Then the terminal shows :"Segmentation fault", and there's no output.
Does anyone know how to solve it?
Thank you in advance.

Thank you for your reply.

I modified the compilation instructions removing -std=legacy and then you don't get that error. However I get error when running the 2 following input files (from AeroDME fork makefile): d03021a.inp and d03031a.inp. I get the following error:

c:\nast95>python ./sbin/nastran.py -o OUTPUT inp/d03021a_.inp
Program received signal SIGSEGV: Segmentation fault - invalid memory reference.
Backtrace for this error:
#0 0xa8f8e3
#1 0xa8748d
#2 0x4010d0

I used gfortran 9.2.0 (MinGW.org GCC Build-2) under windows 10 (x64).

If I use -std=legacy for compilation, I reproduce the above errors. However as a workaround if I change the SOL card from SOL 1,0 or SOL 1,1 to just SOL 1, then it works...

It looks like the problem only affects SOLs 1,2,7,8,9,10,11,12 and 14.

from nastran-95.

So I found the following work-around for this issue :

Obviously the problem is related to the library libgfortran. So I compiled the nastran executable on a working enviroment (i.e. ubuntu 16.04 or caelinux 2018 in my case) applying -static-libgfortran for the link process.

The obtained nastran executable then runs fine on the other system (i.e. ubuntu 22.04) without the discribed problem (i.e. accepting sol 1,1).
