Hello,  
I am running CMAQ\_5.3.1 benchmark case, the base case runs successful but ISAM, it runs for sometime but terminates with these messages on the screen. I am also attaching log file if that helps. Thanks for the support.

1. I can’t tell how many processors this was run on. If run on more than 1 pe, there will be multiple CTM\_LOG files.
2. To check to see if there is an error message in one of the other CTM\_LOG\* files, please use the following command, after changing directories to the location of the log files.

> grep -i error CTM\_LOG\*

I would try it using at least 4 processors  
in your run script set:

```auto
 set PROC = mpi #> serial or mpi

```

and

```auto
   @ NPCOL = 2; @ NPROW = 2

```

Also verify that you have the following command in your .cshrc

> limit stacksize unlimited

Thanks @lizadams . I ran with mpi and also added ‘limit stacksize unlimited’ in csh.cshrc file (i assume this is what you suggested). It stops at the same point it seems. This time I am attaching all the log files. I ran the command grep -i error CTM\_LOG\*, it return nothing. Thanks a lot.
