Dear Fluka experts,

 I am completely new to Fluka. Based on the Fluka webpage I downloaded and installed FLUKA binary 32 bits tar.gz package. I was trying to run rfluka script in $FLUPRO/flutil using the FLUKA input file example in page #23 of FLUKA Beginner's guide. After executing it for 1st cycle it returns the error message

Saving output and random number seed
     No ranexample002 generated!
Saving additional files generated
     No additional files to move
ERROR: Random seed '/srv01/cgrp/users/taraf/flukawork/ranexample002' do not exist!

The three lines of my "example001.err" file shows

  *** The 3th field 0.0 - of the following input card ***
 BEAMPOS 0.0 0.0 -50.0
  *** does not contain a valid formatted fortran real number ***
  *** when one is expected ***

Just wondering whether it has to do something with my g77 compiler ? I have g77 version of 3.4.6. Seems to me that it is alright but may be I am wrong or it is happening for some other reason. I will hugely appreciate any help/suggestion in this regard.

Thanks
