This seems to help to some extent: the program does not crash any more.
However, we see that some threads actually produce a fit result while others say:
Warning in <ROOT::Math::FitConfig::CreateMinimizer>: Could not create the Linear minimizer. Try using the minimizer Minuit2
Error in <ROOT::Math::FitConfig::CreateMinimizer>: Could not create the Minuit2 minimizer
Warning in <Fit>: Abnormal termination of minimization.
Invalid FitResult
Could it be that TH1F is trying to access a global variable (gMinuit ?) ?
If that's case, do you know if creating a per-thread instance of TMinuit and defining a user function which calculates the log likelihood of the histogram given the function 'by hand' is likely to work ?
thanks a lot,
