My Atlas native work unit won't start up properly. In the stderr.txt, it gets as far as this, then after that it gets stuck, and nothing else happens:

I'm also having problems with Atlas on Linux error out fairly soon after starting.

Your computer reports 3.79 GB RAM:
https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/show_host_detail.php?hostid=10846970
This is enough to run XTrack.

ATLAS/CMS/Theory recommend at least 16 GB although they may run with at least 8 GB.
