Dear Ran,
That also baffled me, when I started out in fluka. The random seed works fine, but because of an error before the random seed is written, the ran-file is not generated.
Usually, a folder remains, named 'fluka_[some_pid]', which contains the files that are important to study, namely .out, .log and .err. - files. Note that in the .log-files, the important stuff is at the top, where the others are at the bottom of the file.
Check the following slides as well;
https://indico.cern.ch/event/296741/contribution/28/material/slides/0.pdf
So, study the .out files (the command 'fless' is extraordinarily handy for that), and figure out what the problems are!
Cheerio,
Christian Buhl

Subject: [fluka-discuss]: the random seed does not work
Dear FLUKA experts,
I have downloaded the fluka2011.2b-linuxAA.tar.gz, and installed it followed the manual,
but when I run ex1.inp of 2014 fluka courses, it will come the following error, and it also occurs at other .inp files,
it seems that the random seed does not work. What is wrong with it ?
--======================= Running FLUKA for cycle # 1 =======================
Removing links
Removing temporary files
Saving output and random number seed
No ranex1002 generated!
Saving additional files generated
No additional files to move
ERROR: Random seed '/home/fluka-example/ranex1002' do not exist!
Thank you for your answer!
Best Ragard
Ran
