Thanks for the replies. On the error, SLIC did not crash except on one file (though I'm not certain that it was because of these errors, so I need to run that file again to check). The others ran to completion, but had between 1 and around 15 errors. I'll try a run both with and without them and see if there's any meaningful difference.

The production .lcsim files mostly don't have <inputFiles> because we wanted to avoid people needing to modify their .lcsim files; we use -i instead. So all the examples under https://confluence.slac.stanford.edu/display/hpsg/Basic+Use+of+hps-java have "-i file.slcio" in them. You can have multiple input files if you use "-i file1.slcio -i file2.slcio" and so on. (This doesn't work with "-i *.slcio" and it would be nice if it did, but oh well.)

I've seen that SLIC error. It worries me too, and it's probably something in my geometry. (If it's any consolation, the -v3 geometry is worse.) I'd use the files anyway since 1 bad event out of a million is probably not going to kill your analysis. You should make sure the files have the right number of events (i.e. whether SLIC crashed completely or just kept going with the rest of the events).

Hi Kyle,

For the first part, in the .lcsim you are using there is probably
something like:
    <inputFiles>
       <file>${inputFile}</file>
    </inputFiles>

You could instead put a list of all the input files between
    <inputFiles>
and
    </inputFiles>

If this seems inapplicable, could you please indicate exactly what
.lcsim you are using.

Cheers,
  Homer

Hello hps-software,

I am trying to run LCSim over a series of input files to make some plots.
Is there an easy way to get it to run over all the input files and treat
them as one large file? If not, what is the easiest way to combine multiple
graphs?

On a slightly related, when running some of the aforementioned input files
through SLIC, a small subset of them have produced the error

-------- WWWW ------- G4Exception-START -------- WWWW -------
*** G4Exception : GeomSolids1001
-------- WWWW -------- G4Exception-END --------- WWWW -------

The files that produced these errors were generated from

egs_0.0025x0_450na_100kb_22.stdhep
egs_0.0025x0_450na_100kb_28.stdhep
egs_0.0025x0_450na_100kb_54.stdhep

Running them through SLIC a second time did not correct the error and they
were produced with the geometry defined in HPS-Proposal2014-v4-6pt6.lcdd.
Any idea what might cause this and should I consider the data from these
files to be untrustworthy?

Thanks,

Kyle McCarty
