Totally bizarre. I get 5-6 good runs, then a failure, then repeat that cycle.
Changed random seed to 1677620645 and now get complete boot data and failure in dynamic Bzero.
Change seed again and get stop in another location.
Hypothesis is that we have an uninitialized variable
@e-gugliotti-NOAA Can you check the compile report that has full warnings to see if it says anything about uninitialized variables?
yes, I can check
I didn't see anything there or when running the derivative checker.
@e-gugliotti-NOAA please send me the warnings file so I can keep digging into this
Here is a zip file with all the output files from a run that stopped ss3_issue.zip
I see that when I run locally. I am looking for compile messages like an old message below that are displayed during the build of the exe.
ss.cpp: In member function ‘dvector model_parameters::process_comps(int, int, dvector&, dvector&, const dvector&, dvector&, dvector&)’: ss.cpp:25924:48: warning: ‘temp2’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] more_comp_info(18)+=square(temp2-temp);
@Rick-Methot-NOAA, Are you thinking of the files associated with the build-ss3-warnings github action?
This is the most recent one run on main https://github.com/nmfs-ost/ss3-source-code/actions/runs/7093011442 where I've downloaded the artifact at the bottom and attached here: warnings_ss.txt.
Unfortunately, there is nothing that would help us find a uninitialized variable. It looks like the warnings are all related to these lines where an extra set of {}
would be helpful but perhaps not strictly necessary:
https://github.com/nmfs-ost/ss3-source-code/blob/797760ff1ae10554a4f7729b643ab275125981c0/SS_write_report.tpl#L1386-L1391
Lastly, it looks like the build-ss3-warnings github action is passing even when that new warning appeared because of an out-of-date threshold for the number of warnings as discussed in this old issue that seems to have gotten buried: https://github.com/nmfs-ost/ss3-source-code/issues/452.
Thanks. I saw that warning locally after I turned on -Wall compile flag. Fixing it does not solve the problem. I had been compiling locally using the canned ADMB routine but have switched to the verbose invocation so I can change more of the flags.
I think the problem first appears here: C:\Users\Richard.Methot\Documents\GitHub\StockSynthesis_git\stock-synthesis> git checkout c3c49e3af2dbe94ec20a5b7a660bbe2ae183eadb HEAD is now at c3c49e3 Update SS_write_ssnew.tpl
This commit made changes to strings regarding the names for the data.ssnew files and differentiates between bootstrap files and other files, so logical that it could be cause of the problem.
The bootstrap file header looks like this:
#_Start_time: Mon Dec 11 16:12:14 2023
#_bootdata:_3
#C data file for simple example
#_bootstrap file: 1 irand_seed: 1877620999 first rand#: -1.39387
I suspect the problem is with creation of the 2nd line, which seems unnecessary and erroneously reports the overall count, not the boot count. OK to delete? The overflow leak causing crash goes away when I do. @kellijohnson-NOAA
Describe the bug
I've recently discovered multiple models (including multiple variations of simple_small in r4ss and the 2021 spiny dogfish assessment) exiting the run early when using 3.30.22. The echoinput file ends with
Begin writing bootstrap data file(s)
instead of continuing on toWrite starter.ss_new file
.I don't think this is related to the bootstrap data itself for two reasons:
1 #_spawn_month
in data_boot_001.ss (see screenshot below), as opposed to exiting when while writing randomly generated data. There's nothing in between these two lines where it exited that could explain the exit: https://github.com/nmfs-ost/ss3-source-code/blob/797760ff1ae10554a4f7729b643ab275125981c0/SS_write_ssnew.tpl#L81-L82To Reproduce
Running the attached files with the 3.30.22 executable on Windows sometimes reproduces the error and sometimes doesn't. simple_small_biasadjQ_varySE.zip
I ran using the command
ss3 -nohess -stopph 0
again and again. The first 5 quit afterand the 6th time it completed:
Expected behavior
Finish writing bootstrap data files and remaining .ss_new files.
Screenshots
Screenshot shows matching random seeds in the completed and incomplete bootstrap data files.
Which OS are you seeing the problem on?
