I am trying to run a VUMAT on Abaqus 6.14. It was previously used successfully on Abaqus 6.11. I have successfully recompiled and linked (using ifort and LINK through a .bat file) the VUMAT in single and double precision in order to obtain [I]explicitU.dll[/I] and [I]explicitU-D.dll[/I] files. These files are added to a shared library and Abaqus is directed to them by adding [I]usub_lib_dir=C:\\PathToSharedLibrary[/I] to the environment file. I then submit the job through the command line, without using the [I]user=[/I] option. I have successfully used this method to run a different VUMAT. However, for the present VUMAT, the simulation is not running. After I submit the job I get the error message below in the .log file. There are no error messages in the .dat file, the .msg and .sta files have not been generated.

Abaqus Error: The executable package.exe aborted with system error code 1073741511.
Please check the .dat, .msg, and .sta files for error messages if the filesexist. If there are no error messages and you cannot resolve the problem,please run the command abaqus job=support information=support to report andsave your system information. Use the same command to run Abaqus that youused when the problem occurred. Please contact your local Abaqus supportoffice and send them the input file, the file support.log which you justcreated, the executable name, and the error code.

I have come to a bit of a dead end with this as there is very little information online. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You need to recompile your VUMAT for use with Abaqus 6.14. Basically every release of Abaqus requires the user-subroutines to be recompiled.

Thank you for your reply. Fortunately I have been able to solve this problem. The error lay within one of the options specified in the ifort command. More specifically, relating to options in the export.def file (a file which, I believe is created by Abaqus and called during compilation). I have now successfully compiled and run my subroutine using the shared library method.
Best regards,
Michael
Hi Micheal,
Im currently facing the same error 1073741511 with Abaqus 2018 (linked successfully with fortran). However instead of your shared library method, I still used the old-fashion [I]user=[/I] option command. Im not sure whether this is the same issue applied.
Could you please share some more details on how did you actually modify the fortran commands and finally solve this problem with me?
I really appreciate your help.
Best regards,
Liz
Abaqus can be quite picky about what Fortran compiler that you are using. If you still have that problem then I suggest that you make sure that you are using a compiler (and version) that is supported by Abaqus.
