Another error when I did MC pretagging is

"cafe: caught exception during running: No MC type for request ID 32875 specified in the file caf_mc_util/mc_sample_info/MC_reqid.list"

The reason for this is that in my script to submit jobs I forgot a break '\' where it is supposed to have one to break one command line to several parts.
cafe continues crashed due to some reasons. I spent days on this problem. Crash error at StatBranch.inputClosingFile() ... I print out the pointer of tmb_tree (in the function of treehandler->ClearIt() ), it is not null, however, I cannot get even the tree name by tmb_tree->GetName() (because it will be crashed then). So I looked into the file: bdt_tau_util/src/ApplyTauID_BDTCut.cpp and removed the line:

delete tmbtree;

in the function ApplyTauID_BDTCut::inputFileClosing, then things become working again.

I realized that I reached up the limit of my quota on Fermilab account. So I have to clean to get more rooms. What I did:

Use the command

du -s * .[a-zA-Z]* | sort -n

to check home directory. Remove large files
