[sharp-discuss] FFT problem during solvent flattening

Dear Taro,

looks like a permission error - I'm not sure which file it can't open
though. Maybe you can attach the whole log file?

Another reason might be NFS related: sometimes, the script just runs
to fast. And if anything is funny with your filesystems (ie. your
logfiles etc directories are not local to the machine where you
actually run the job) things can go funny. So make sure to have NFS
configured correctly. Another thing could be that the time one the the
two machines is different - try configuring ntp/xntp. Obviously, if
you run the whole thing completely local (httpd and sharpfiles
directory) then this does not apply.

What happens if you try and run the job again? Does it always stop
with the same error? Or does it sometimes work?

Cheers

Clemens
