We have a crash when reading multiple files. The fcl file is extremely simple, just RootInput and RootOutput (for merging files). Find the complete fcl file below.

I talked to Marc and Kyle, and they diagnosed the problem as being due to our files having a subrun data product (POTSummary) that was never read into memory. They suggested a workaround of adding a module to read this subrun data product (didn't test yet). I did test another workaround of dropping the POTSummary data product, which worked.

#include "services_microboone.fcl" 

process_name: Copy

services:
{
  scheduler:    { defaultExceptions: false }    # Make all uncaught exceptions fatal.
  message:      @local::standard_warning
  FileCatalogMetadata:  @local::art_file_catalog_data
}

source:
{
  module_type: RootInput
  maxEvents:  10        # Number of events to create
}

physics:
{
 #define the output stream, there could be more than one if using filters 
 stream1:  [ out1 ]
 #end_paths is a keyword and contains the paths that do not modify the art::Event, 
 #ie analyzers and output streams.  these all run simultaneously
 end_paths:     [ stream1 ]  
}

outputs:
{

 out1:
 {

   module_type: RootOutput
   fileName:    "%ifb_%tc_merged.root" 
   dataTier:    "raw" 
   compressionLevel: 3

   FCMDPlugins: [

     { plugin_type:   "FileCatalogMetadataRawDigit" 
       RawDigitLabel: "digitcopy" 
     }

    ]

 }
