[petsc-users] Error of petsc builde or the conflic between Petsc and intel-window Microsoft Visual Stud compiler

Wed May 11 14:03:46 CDT 2011

  This is a very strange error. To pointers are coming out to be 0 when there is no way they should ever be.

   First cd to src/vec/vec/examples/tutorials ; make ex1; ./ex1 does that run ok?

   Then cd src/snes/examples/tutorials; make ex19; ./ex19  does that crash (likely it will)

   Then you need to run either ex1 (if it crashed) or ex19 in the debugger to see how the pointers in the PetscMemcpy() are ending up being zero.

   One thought is that some incompatible system library is getting linked in. Are you sure the install of Developers studio is correct and there are not any old compiler libraries around? That is does a simple developers studio code compile and run correctly?
