glibc detected - malloc(): memory corruption:

[rleeper]

When I run ARWpost.exe I get a memory corruption error (see full error message below) which causes ARWpost to stall. I have played around with namelist.ARWpost options and have determined that I do not get this error when I select diagnostic or 3D model variables. Unfortunately, I need 2 meter temperature T2, which is a 2D model variable that is of the variety that causes ARWpost.exe crashes each time with this error. I have compiled ARWpost using gfortran version 4.5.3 x86_64. I wonder if I missed a compiler flag option or a messed up some namelist.ARWpost setting see the namelist and configure files listed below. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks for your time in advance.

[akiortagem]

I have the exact same error, is it resolved yet? do anyone have the solution?

[kserradell]

I'm having the same issue with GNU Fortran (GCC) 4.4.7 20120313

With only one variable it works:

Code: Select all

 plot = 'list'
 fields = 'height'

But with more

Code: Select all

 plot = 'list'
 fields = 'height,T2'

Crashes.

*** glibc detected *** ./ARWpost.exe: malloc(): memory corruption: 0x00000000044b4060 ***

With Ifort never got this problem.

[tanbir_sagar]

I am having the same problem can any body help with this problem ??

[peter]

I have a similar problem. The only solution that I found was to remove from my list the variables which I detected as being a problem, T2 and HGT. After that I was able to run arwpost and postprocess my remaining variables.

[Ramchandra]

I am also having the same problem. if any solution is available please kindly respond. I am a begineer to this wrf arw model
