Looking around for this error suggested that memory might be the case, but I watched the memory used and there was still nearly 4GB of RAM free. There are also a few hundred GB of disk space, so it's not that either.

This is using MSieve 1.52 SVN945 on Windows 7 64-bit. Any ideas?

Edit: The number is the cofactor of 11^238+5^238 (C149, SNFS difficulty = 213). I've done a C142 myself, so unless I was right at the edge of something, I don't know why this would fail.
Edit 2: Using the 1.51 official version from Jeff Gilchrist's site (the 64 bit i7/i5 one) works.

No idea why v1.52 wouldn't work; the changes in the latest SVN should have nothing to do with the filtering. I wonder if your current binary has some kind of 32-bit limit even if your system does not...

Yeah, it's a 32-bit file. However, I tried the 64-bit versions from Jeff's page (SVN 942 and SVN 939). Both of them throw errors on the actual linear algebra:

[CODE]lanczos error: submatrix is not invertiblemensions (0.0%, ETA 14h39m)

lanczos halted after 5 iterations (dim = 250)
linear algebra failed; retrying...[/CODE]

I'm going to try rebuilding a 64-bit version from the latest SVN.

Edit: And now I'm reminded why I didn't have a 64-bit version yet...errors at the literal last step of compiling about not being able to find correct calls to a couple of GMP-based functions. In the meantime, using the 1.51 version that works.

Well, some fiddling around and not including ECM=1 in the build, and I have a successfully working V1.52 SVN945 64-bit version of Msieve. I guess I screwed up the previous build. It's lovely to watch the expected completion time drop from 34 hours to 13.5 hours.

Now to try and get a version with ECM built into it...
