Re: FLUKA File Renaming Error

I have attached an input file (the original name of the file was
1.inp). This job was not running in the $FLUPRO directory.

I believe that this error is the result of the failure to create a new
directory for the job. The job then runs in the parent directory
rather than in the subdirectory that the job attempted but failed to
create. At some point after the end of the run, the script must copy
* from the current directory to 1004_* in the parent directory (when
it copies the fort.* files). Because the subdirectory was never
created, this results in FLUKA moving all of the files in the parent
directory to 1004_* (for the fourth iteration of 1.inp), even if the
files are not related to FLUKA.

Thank you again for your help with this matter.
