msctpeak error

Josh Walawender wrote on May 31, 2006

I've just switched to a Mac OS X system and have run into an error when running msctpeak:

ms> msctpeak obj009 USNO_obj009 database
ERROR on line 62: Cannot open connected subprocess (ttools$x_ttools.e)
    msctpeak (images=obj009, coordinates=USNO_obj009, database=database)


I'm not sure what this means and other mscred tasks appear to be working properly (I just recently installed mscred). Any suggestions?

thanks,
Josh

It means either TABLES is not installed, has been defined with an incorrect path (e.g. a missing trailing '/'), or the binaries are missing from tables$bin.macosx/ (or bin.macintel for an OSX Intel system). Rarely, the file exists but is not executable.
