What kind of a closedown was that? I see two signal 5's followed by a signal 6 over the course of 6 seconds. As I'm sure you already know, there's a known problem with protomol taking a "long" time to shut down, and this is probably the same problem.

Apparently ProtoMol tries to write a checkpoint when you shut it down. That does take some time. I don't know the details, so this is mostly educated guessing, but let's assume that protomol takes 10 seconds to finish writing files and shut down. Whatever was shutting FAH down (was it the OS?) asked nicely twice but it didn't shut down in the 4 or 5 seconds allowed so it was assumed to be hung and was unceremoniously killed after 6 seconds. The file it was writing at the time was incomplete so a restart was impossible.

Next time, try shutting down ProtoMol and giving it some extra time before it gets the signal 6. (This looks suspiciously like a Windows shutdown, so until the bug is fixed, you may need to shut down the client manually first.)
