Parallel Analysis: error: All workers aborted during execution of the parfor loop

Hey

I am running parallel analysis on some image process scripts using Matlab 2014a on a PC with 6 cores 32Gb memory.

It worked fine in the past, but recently I got error message: workers aborted during execution of the parfor loop.

Does anyone have encountered similar problem or have some knowledge that are the causes for this problem.

Many thanks

What happens if you convert the parfor loop temporarily to a for loop? Does it run properly?

Have you figured out the issue? I have the exact same problem, my code used to run in parallel without a problem until a few weeks ago. I tested everything and can't find the issue, I'm certain it's not a code issue since the same code used to run fine. The program runs fine serially, and the only error message I get when running in parallel is "All workers aborted during execution of the parfor loop" which is not very helpful.

I'm running R2014a

thanks

I figured it out, apparently it's not possible to set titles and axis labels using the latex interpreter when running in parallel. The code stopped working in parallel when I set the default interpreter to latex in startup.m. The funny thing is, functions that are called inside the parfor can use latex without a problem, but it's not possible to use it from within the body of parfor...go figure

In order for the workers to use tex interpreter by default I added the following line to poolStartup.m

set(0, 'DefaultTextInterpreter', 'tex')
