Hello Zack,

you may be running out of memory. Building Cactus is quite memory intensive (in particular compiling auto-generated C++ code in McLachlan and the linking step).

kill 9 is what happens is the OS kills a process due to running out of memory (you can try and look for an error message the contains the word OOM for out-of-memory).

If you can I would try and reserve at least 3GB of memory (2GB is known to fail if eg a browser is open at the same time and you try and compile even with 2 parallel build processes) for the VM.

Yours, Roland

Hello,

I'm attempting to build the Einstein Toolkit for the first time, following the new users guide online.

I keep getting the attached error at the end of compilation. I cannot seem to figure out what it means.

Here are my specs: Running Ubuntu 18.04 on VMware Workstation 14, giving 2GB RAM, 2 cores, and 20GB of hard drive space. 8th Gen Core i7-8550U processor

Any help would be appreciated.

Respectfully,
