[petsc-users] Tao's user-defined Monitor crashes

[Shu Wang]

Hi all,


I ran into a error with user-defined tao's monitor with TaoSetMonitor in Fortran.


When I ran the example eptorsion2f in $PETSC_DIR/src/tao/unconstrained/examples/tutorials/ with '-testmonitor', there split the following error,


[0]PETSC ERROR: ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[0]PETSC ERROR: Caught signal number 11 SEGV: Segmentation Violation, probably memory access out of range
[0]PETSC ERROR: Try option -start_in_debugger or -on_error_attach_debugger

[0]PETSC ERROR: [0] TaoDestroy line 276 /home/ws/Softwares/petsc-3.9.3/src/tao/interface/taosolver.c
[0]PETSC ERROR: --------------------- Error Message -------------------------------------------------------------

My configuration for petsc-3.9.3 is as follows:


--with-metis-dir=/usr/local/ --with-parmetis-dir=/usr/local/ --download-hdf5 -with-debugging=1 --with-mpi-dir=/usr/local/openmpi --download-fblaslapack --with-fortran-datatypes.

and the compiler is gcc-4.7.4 with openmpi/2.0.1.
Is there any bug associate with tao's destroy routine with user-defined monitor is invoked?

Any comments are welcomed.


Yours sincerely,
