[Halld-offline] [EXTERNAL] auxilliary data file needed for running with HADR=4

No crashes- it runs fine without any errors. Logs are located at
/volatile/halld/home/gleasonc/pippimeta/Simulation/2017-01_4.19_G3/HADR4_b/log.
Looking carefully at onne of the log files, I find:
>

It looks like this is where things go wrong, as only ~250 of the ~2k
generated events are getting processed.

This issue, or STOP, does not appear when I run interactively.  Running
interactively would show:
