Can you be more precise, please? What did you do and how exactly does your error look like?

Hello,

I also have the same problem. Though my version differs slightly but we use the same OS system.

This is what my error looks like

[ Info: Precompiling Trixi [a7f1ee26-1774-49b1-8366-f1abc58fbfcb] Mingw-w64 runtime failure: 32 bit pseudo relocation at 00000000672581E3 out of range, targeting 00007FFA87ED05B0, yielding the value 00007FFA20C783C9.

Looks like a Windows issue :grimacing:

The t8code binaries provided by the JLL package have been updated recently (see https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/Yggdrasil/pull/7775). The T8code.jl CI is failing on Windows with a similar error (see https://github.com/DLR-AMR/T8code.jl/actions/runs/7167253532/job/19512982787#step:5:698), maybe this update broke the current T8code.jl release. Since Trixi.jl depends on T8code.jl this could be the cause of this issue as well.

Please try to use the old binaries by pinning the version of t8code_jll and tell us if it works or if the issue persists. To do that, run the following commands after activating the Julia environment in which you want to use Trixi:

julia> using Pkg
julia> pkg"add t8code_jll@v1.1.2"

[JoshuaLampert]

It also fails in our CI (see e.g. https://github.com/trixi-framework/Trixi.jl/actions/runs/7169750961/job/19520881415?pr=1771#step:7:1195)

Hello,

I downgraded T8code and now Trixi is working properly. Thank you very much for your help!

This fixed the problem, Thank you very much for your help!

A fix for t8code_jll v1.6.1 is under way. https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/Yggdrasil/pull/7795

[JoshuaLampert]

The new version of t8code_jll.jl fixed the CI problems. So now you should be able to use the newest versions again. Thanks @jmark for the quick fix!
