The default memory limit of the (cshell at least) is insufficient to run feff. Try rerunning the code after using the (cshell) command unlimit. You can check the current shell limitations with "limit -h" (hard limits). I don't know what the equivalent commands for bash are but I am fairly sure there are similar limitations (to prevent naive users from using all system resources by accident).

Hi folks,
I'm using a PM (2X1.8 MHz processors) under OSX v 10.3.4 (Panther latest version). I have installed ifeffit-1.2.5a two weeks ago and used Atoms many times since. It works well till yesterday when I loose the ability to use the space group browser with an error reported on the herre attached file. It looks that I have a problem with Tk, but I don't understand why. I have tried to make a new install from scratch after putting in the trash the ifeffit and perl (the one I assume to be put by the iffit installer in the home/lib folder): it didn't fix the problem. I found rather puzzling to find several perl folders (one coming from ifeffit and one from Fink). Looking my environnement, I found the following: PERL5LIB=/sw/lib/perl5:/sw/lib/perl5/darwin. I therefore modify my profile making a setenv to force to use the perl from ifeffit without any change. So it seems some hidden file is responsible of this behavior. I must say that if I enter the space group by hand, Atoms runs (e.g. it creates the feff.inp file).
If anybody has a solution, I will appreciate.
Additional point: I have compliled feff7 using the GNU g77 from Fink, but it stops the run with a segmentation fault. Any hint?
Best regards
