    Hello Brandon,

    Did you see the webcourse section on fluka's website ? It explains some
    error messages and in particular those with your message.
    Please follow that link :
    http://www.fluka.org/course/WebCourse/crash/P012.html
    Did you check the data you gave in Low-mat ? Do you really need Low-mat
    for your problem ?
    And I saw one other thing : you have commented off the ALUMINUM and
    SILICON card (first lines of your material section), but in the
    assignment section, you use ALUMINUM ... your aluminum is the default
    one (pre-defined material number 10 in FLUKA) in this case, do you
    really want this ?

    I hope it helps.

    Sébastien
