* stack smashing detected *: a.out terminated

So I'm working on a program in my Programming I class and we were assigned to create a program that will check to see if a routing number from a bank is valid. Every time I run this program on NetBeans, I have no issue. BUT, when I run it through our Ubuntu student server, I get this crazy error. I've been trying to debug this program for a while now and can't quite see where this error is originating from. I've tried changing the array sizes and with no luck, I'm still getting this error. Here is a copy of the error:

Enter a bank routing number: 
103000648
1 0 3 0 0 0 6 4 8 
7 3 9 7 3 9 7 3 
7 0 27 0 0 0 42 12 
7 7 34 34 34 34 76 88 
88
8
the check code is valid

If any of you are familiar with this error message, please please help! Thank you so much!
