Reg: Uncaught Exception: com.sun.forte.st.mpmt.ipc$AnIPCException

Question

I am developing programs using sun studio 12 on SunFireT1000 Server having Solaris 10 OS .
My program is getting compiled and running well but i have probems in profiling.
When I try to profile, I got the following error
"Uncaught Exception: com.sun.forte.st.mpmt.ipc$AnIPCException
er_print exited due to internal error
Exception in thread Window_thread."
Even for the programs that I profiled earlier I am now getting the same error.
If I login with a different user name I am able to profile the same project without the above error but I cannot modify the source code.
Kindly suggest a solution to overcome the above problem.
Thanks in advance,

Hi Mahendraarman,
Thank you for the report! Usually this error message (exception) indicates a problem in "er_print",
or in the dialog between "analyzer" and "er_print". Could you please check if there is a "core" file
from "er_print"? If there is no 'core" file, please, make sure the limit on coredumpsize is unlimited,
and start analyzer again:
{code}
% csh
% limit coredumpsize unlimited
% limit
cputime unlimited
filesize unlimited
datasize unlimited
stacksize 10240 kbytes
coredumpsize unlimited
descriptors 256
memorysize unlimited
% analyzer
{code}
If you get a core file from "er_print", please, run "pstack core" and post its output.
You wrote that you can view the experiment using another user's account. This is
very important detail. Do you have ".er.rc" file in your $HOME directory?
If yes, could you, please, rename it and start analyzer again?
{code}
% mv $HOME/.er.rc $HOME/.er.rc.0
% analyzer
{code}
If you cannot get a core file, and there is no $HOME/.er.rc file, could you please
run analyzer under truss, and send me the truss output?
{code}
% truss -a -e -f -o /tmp/analyzer.tr analyzer
{code}
When the problem happens, send me this file: /tmp/analyzer.tr
