I’ve seen these too. It’s from here, right at the end of the error handler. `n`
is the error code so someone is returning an unknown error code somewhere.
PetscStrncmp(fun, "main", 4, &ismain);
if (ismain) {
if ((n <= PETSC_ERR_MIN_VALUE) || (n >= PETSC_ERR_MAX_VALUE))
(*PetscErrorPrintf)("Reached the main program with an out-of-range error code
%d. This should never happen\n", n);
PetscOptionsViewError();
PetscErrorPrintfHilight();
(*PetscErrorPrintf)("----------------End of Error Message -------send
entire error message to petsc-ma...@mcs.anl.gov----------\n");
PetscErrorPrintfNormal();
}
}
