Hi,

I get a bug warning when trying to run this. Is this a memory error? Is there a fix?

Thanks,

Dan Lind

Hi Dan,

Yes that is a memory error. The UCERF3 ERFs use a ton of memory and you'll have to use a different launch file. Since you're using the nightly build, you can try this:

You will have to run it with 64-bit java though (it looks like you're using 32-bit right now).

We will try to come up with a better launching system in the future that allows users to select configurations based on their needs.
