internal compiler error

[Michel]

I have run into the following error:

fortcom: Fatal: There has been an internal compiler error (C0000005)

At first I could not reproduce it because it only happened on some workstations during make.
sometimes a 2nd make did go trough. Also running the build command directly, not from make, did work.

I now have been able to reproduce the problem in an isolated environment.
Attached is one source file, note that we use a networked folder where the compiler and includes are.
If we change the number of comment lines in the source file then the crash goes away.

steps:
cd to V00i\plib_pl and run make --trace

I have run make -p --trace 1> makeresult.txt 2> makeerror.txt
the resulting text files are included in the attached zip.

Hopefully this is reproducable @intel.

Thank you for reporting the internal error, Michel. I will try reproducing this and post another update soon.

[Michel]

Thanks for the quick reply Kevin,

It took me some time to find a reproducable state because I only get the error when the compiler is called from make...

[Kevin_D_Intel]

The test case definitely has some peculiarities about it with sensitivity to a variety of things that seemingly shouldn’t matter but do. I managed to reproduce the error without using make and directed it to Development (see internal tracking id below) for additional analysis. I will keep you posted on what I hear regarding the issue/root cause and a fix.

I checked and it seems to be resolved in update 2 (2015.2.179)

Thank you for the note. I do not have any indication from Development the issue has been fixed. The test case was particularly sensitive so perhaps something is slightly different enough in Update 2 to no longer cause the error.  I will inquire about a fix and also check Update 2 myself.

[Kevin_D_Intel]

This is such an odd behaving test case. I cannot recreate the error now with Update 1 on the same system I could earlier. It does not reproduce with Update 2 either, but it does reproduce with the initial release (15.0.0.108). There has been no specific identified cause or fix so it appears the non-reproducibility with Update 2 is just by chance. I will keep you updated when I learn more from Development.

[Michel]

I just ran my test case with the different compilers.

15.0.0.108 and 15.0.2.279 compile fine, only 15.0.1.148 fails.

Here the compile run output.

It is really strange. btw, my system is Windows 8.1 Pro
