[petsc-users] block size

[Hong Zhang]

You use same datafile 'vec.dat' for writing two different vectors,
V3 and V1:

ierr = VecView(V1, view_out);
ierr = VecView(V3, view_out);

// here, vec.dat holds V3

Then read it in the order
ierr = VecLoad(V1, view_in);
//crash here because reading V3 into V1

ierr = VecLoad(V3, view_in);

Comment out one of vectors, your code works fine.
