segmentation fault after running

I finished compiling parallel vasp 4.6, using ifort 10.0.023, fftw-3.1, blas library, mpich 1.2.7, lam/mpi 7.0.6. Things seem to work during the compilation process. However, when I try to run real vasp jobs, I always got the following errors. Does anybody have similar experience, or happen to know what is wrong? Thanks a lot.

please check if
1) the fftw-3.1 is comatible
2) your memory is sufficient to run the job (i.e does vasp crash even for very small test systems?).
