That error message means that you are sampling an energy greater than
the value declared in the BEAM card.
Are you using a source user routine? Are you using FLUKA with rqmd and
dpmjet?
The valued in the BEAM card is used by FLUKA as the maximum energy for
initial tabulation of cross sections , dE/dx etc.
If by chance you overcome that value the program goes crazy.
