2017-09-11 15:57:54 Daniel Egana-Ugrinovic description Hi, When showering with Pythia8 with just one core, showering fails. The error one gets is Pythia8 cross-section could not be retreived. Try turning parallelization off by setting the option nb_core to 1. The given message doesn't make sense, since I am actually running on single core mode. Strangely, the problem only arises when working with only one core, with generate_events --nb_core=1. Using generate_events --nb_core=2 fixes the issue (unfortunately, when running on clusters, system administrators usually ask you to avoid multi-threaded code, so in those cases using nb_core=2 would not help). Further information: Options are set in mg5 with set run_mode 2 set nb_core 1 save options Events are being run with madevent: generate_events runname --nb_core=1 shower=PYTHIA8 Technical details: Running madgraph 2.6.0 Pythia8 Python 2.7.13 gcc (GCC) 6.2.0 I attach the MG5 output file Thanks!

The problem may be that the file unweighted_events.lhe is not being compressed into a gzip file unweighted_events.lhe.gz. Since run_shower.sh seems to need a gzipped lhe file, showering fails.
