file lists

Adam Stanford wrote on Jun 16, 2013

I'm having a problem using lists of files. I'm running 2.16 in mountain lion on a new MacBook Pro. If I try to use a file list with e.g. imstat, I see an error message "Error reading image blah..." after going through the first 24 files in the list correctly. If I use a wildcard with imstat to operate on the same set of images, I see the following error message:

vocl> imstat *cbcd.fits

PANIC in `/usr/local/scisoft//packages/iraf/iraf/bin.macintel/x_images.e': Memory fwa has been corrupted

Then if I create a cl script which runs imstat separately on each image in my list, i.e.

imstat image1
imstat image2
imstat image3
.
.
.

and run that as a cl script, it works fine, all the way through the entire list.

The usual workaround is to disable the new templates by using

vocl> reset use_new_imt = no

thanks!

I'm not sure if this is related but I also encountered this kind of error today:

vocl> imari medstk46871296.fits - 0.103438 medstk46871296.fits
ERROR: Cannot open file (/tmp///.IMT501)
