Hi, I am using root version 2.25/03 on a sun running Solaris 2.6. I've just started to play with some hbook files produced; converting them to root using h2root and want to do some analysis with these. The hbook file is 6 Mb and the root one is 1.5M: 5.7M b0pi0pi0-382459-382459.hbook 1.5M b0pi0pi0-382459-382459.root I got a very disconcerting warning from root when after opening the file file and trying to load it into memory (I wanted to look at an ntuple): root [1] Error in <TBuffer::ReadObject>: object tag too large, I/O buffer corrupted Error in <TBuffer::ReadObject>: object tag too large, I/O buffer corrupted Error in <TBuffer::ReadObject>: object tag too large, I/O buffer corrupted *** Break *** segmentation violation Using another SUN system (Solaris 2.6) root 2.23 will open other root files (from hbook files made by the same analysis code). Re-building the first file worked (on the same system using the same h2root binary); root gave no errors when on opening the file I tried to display the content of the ntuple (this is what went wrong before). Has anyone encountered similar errors on a regular basis or was this just some freak one-off that will be unrepeatable or very infrequent? All other times that I have used h2root have yielded no obvious problems whatsoever. I just thought I'd ask ... as I will have quite a lot of hbook file conversions to do in the coming month. Thanks Adrian
