Dear Fluka Experts,

I am attempting to help a friend who has been continuing research I was
conducting at ESA.

She has been having trouble running her simulations and I have not been
able to identify the problem. She has also had trouble contacting fluka
discuss so I am helping her at least with that.

She has been unable to execute simulations. Here is her input file which
has been based on what I had previously used successfully:

I asked her to run from the terminal rather than in flair to get a better
idea of where things were going wrong but all we discovered was that
nothing is being executed at all. Immediately after the "Running FLUKA for
cycle #1" line the execution is ended with no returns or reports. No error
log is created either. I'm attaching the .out in case there is any useful
information of where it has gone wrong.

If any of you can identify why this will not run either in flair or from
the terminal we would be very grateful as she has a lot of work still to do
in order to write her thesis.

Thank you very much for your time,
Cillian
