Hi,
that error message typically appears when the user sets a too small value
for the photon biasing factor for hadronic inelastic interactions
(WHAT(2) in option LAM-BIAS). That means that a too large number of
nuclear interactions takes place, and too many secondaries are created,
filling all the available space in the stack.
What is "a too small value" for the biasing factors depends on the problem,
and in particular on its photon energy range. In problems up to one
or two GeV, a factor 0.01 or 0.02 is acceptable, but in problems of the order
of several 100 GeV it is often impossible to work with factors < 0.05-0.1.
Try to increase that value, and you will see the message disappear.
