Re: [cctbxbb] Fwd: [Dials-support] dials.stills_process crash report

Hi Graeme, As far as I can tell from stills_process.py you're using easy_mp.parallel_map() for your multiprocessing. I should use easy_mp.multi_core_run() instead. It is a different version of easy_mp.parallel_map(). See https://www.phenix-online.org/newsletter/CCN_2017_01.pdf#page=6 One of its features is that it preserves stacktraces from individual child processes should they crash which is helpful for debugging. If a child process crashes in parallel_map() however you will not get a stacktrace from the offending child which makes correcting the misbehaviour more difficult.

Folks

Once again, lack of stack traces in easy_mp is a big annoyance

I forget the reasons why printing the actual error was a bad thing, but I do remember a discussion some 18 mo past

Not wishing to replay the entire transaction, but could we revisit this?

Thanks Graeme

Perhaps this means something to someone. This is the SACLA data again, it seems to run happily and then hit a problematic frame? Martin and I see the error at pretty much the same point in the dataset, we were both running on local machines rather than the cluster.

Cheers, Danny
