[phenixbb] v1.8 bug ? memory allocation crash - apparently also in AutoBuild

Hi Phil,

Usually that error message means literally that the required resolve size is too big. In that space group it could be so even if the cell is not huge. Sometimes there is some other error however. You can probably tell by cutting the resolution way back and then if there is an error it is coming from something else (In that case please let me know!)

All the best,
Tom T

I find that parameter under the model building GUI and verify its
setting under View All Settings but it makes no difference.  Don't see
any other parameters involving "fill" set to True.


Potentially informative last part of log:


Possibly cresolve size  96  was too big for this machine

See overall log file and also
resolve log file (in

Note: It is possible that the required size of resolve
needs more memory than is available
