Error in making and testing moose

[AmbroiseJuston]

I have been trying to compile and test moose onto my windows machine using WSL. I have followed the steps provided at https://mooseframework.inl.gov/getting_started/installation/conda.html under getting started. I went all through cloning MOOse and every step seemed to work however when it comes to building and testing moose I keep getting the same error (see below).

Error in question:

Compiling C++ (in opt mode) /home/ambroisej/projects/moose/test/build/unity_src/dgkernels_Unity.C...
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}: Error: open CFI at the end of file; missing .cfi_endproc directive

make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

I copied and pasted the commands provided under that section however when running make -j 6 it will compile for a couple of minutes before returning the error shown above. The first time I ran this my laptop died so I initially just reran it while restarting from the top however the error persisted. I also assumed it could be from lack of space on my disk however I have around 120Gb of free memory left so I am not sure.

any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Hello

Can you try make -j 1 ?
Kill signals often happen when you run out of memory. and -j6 will use quite a bit

It was indeed simply this. I thought I had tried, but I guess not. In any case, thank you very much for the help; it is appreciated.

Appreciate the insight. I ran into the same error and resolved it through make -j 3
