AliPhysics build fails due to c++ internal compiler

O²
1

Hi All,

I am having an issue building AliPhysics on macOS Big Sur. I have seen other issues occur with o2, which are fixed by building with one core using “j -1”, but this solution does not seem to fix this issue. The full log is included here https://cernbox.cern.ch/index.php/s/zVZYTjZChVtXiiJ, but a snippet is included below.

Cheers,

Hannah

How much memory do you have on your machine? I assume you use -j 1, not -j -1 as you wrote, right?

Hi Giulio,

Yes, I am using -j 1. I have plenty of memory left in the system (40 GB) but Bong Hwi suggested to me that this may be fixed by adding swapped memory. I am also using docker which places strict limits on the amount of memory and swapped memory used.

I have adjusted these and have tried to build again. I will write again here as to whether or not this fix is successful :slight_smile:

Cheers,

Hannah
