Hello, I am running 32 bit Windows 7 and Geant4.9.5. patch 02 using cmake 2.8.10 and visual studio 10. All are just fine. During last week I tried to install the new Geant4.9.6 with patch 01. It was installed fine, I changed environmental variables and I want to run any application (my own as well as some examples). None of applications work!!! I was forced to go back to Geant4.9.5. patch 02!!! The issue is opengl when trying to access visualization driver. Removing those lines of code generates other error regarding, I think, G4UImanager. I know there is a similar bug reported (openGl error)but no clear solution was given. Maybe the next patch will solve it, until then, I stick to my "old" Geant4 version. Best regards, Dan
What I did: 1. install geant4.9.6_p01 2. assign environmental variables accordingly 3. restart the computer 4. build for instance example N03 from novice examples (geant4.9.6_p01). 5. build its executable in Visual Studio 6. try to run but I receive a windows specific error message: " Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: exampleN03.exe Application Version: 0.0.0.0 Application Timestamp: 5195cbf6 Fault Module Name: MSVCR100.dll Fault Module Version: 10.0.40219.1 Fault Module Timestamp: 4d5f0c22 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 0000205c OS Version: 6.1.7600.2.0.0.256.1 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: 0a9e Additional Information 2: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Additional Information 3: 0a9e Additional Information 4: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Read our privacy statement online: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=104288&clcid=0x0409 If the online privacy statement is not available, please read our privacy statement offline: C:\Windows\system32\en-US\erofflps.txt " Therefore I did: 1. Reset environmental variables to old geant4.9.5_p02 2. Restart the computer 3. build for instance example N03 from novice examples (from geant4.9.5_p02). 4. build its executable in Visual Studio 5. run the exe file and everything works! I did and undid the above several times and the conclusion is: geant 4.9.5 works for me and geant 4.9.6 does not!!
Additional info: When I let visual studio to debug the error message I get: Loaded 'C:\Windows\System32\ntdll.dll', Cannot find or open the PDB file 'exampleN03.exe': Loaded 'C:\Windows\System32\kernel32.dll', Cannot find or open the PDB file 'exampleN03.exe': Loaded 'C:\Windows\System32\KernelBase.dll', Cannot find or open the PDB file 'exampleN03.exe': Loaded 'D:\GEANT4\geant4_9_6_p01_install\bin\G4Tree.dll', Binary was not built with debug information.

It is not easy to see what your problem is. We test all our releases on several platforms, including Windows (see Release Notes from the Geant4 Download web page). It is something to do with your Windows installation or your installation of Geant4. (I assume you are using the CMake procedure documented in the Installation Guide.) There is nothing in your diagnostics to suggest that it is anything to do with OpenGL, the visualisation manager or the UI manager. From our point of view, we do not think this is a bug and so I am closing this report and marking it INVALID. This does not mean you do not have a genuine problem and I suggest you re-post your problem on the User Forum. In that way it will reach many more people including users who might have had this problem and found a solution. Sorry not to have been able to be more helpful.
