ccp4 on Win7 'clipper::Message_fatal'-Solved

From: Yuri <yuri.pompeu@ufl.edu>

Seems to be working now.
I wish the error message was a little more indicative of the actual problem for the not-so-intelligent like myself!
(which turned out to have a simple fix here)
That could have saved some time, and spared you from looking into something this obvious!
Thank you for the help!

Yes, you are right, both "-hklin" and "-mtzin" are valid option keys.

I have reproduced your error message.
The problem is in the command line option "-colout yap-ii-77-73".

Now I must check what happens on Linux.
Meanwhile a quick fix for you: use no more than 10 characters in the box
"Modifier to append to column labels".

Does this recipe work for you?

The thing is, I did not run any command myself. I was using the GUI. So the command was written for me.
Thats why I thought it was really odd that this may be a wrong command.
Obviuosly the GUI for RedHat works.

Best,

Hi Yuri

Perhaps you have used incorrect command line keys.

I have installed ccp4 using Marcins script on my Windows 7 Virtual Box.
Then I used ccp4i to run ctruncate with my test case.
"Run > Run & View Com File" showed the following command:
ctruncate -mtzin
"C:/Users/andrey/Desktop/HemH_tutorial/test_scala1.mtz" -mtzout
"C:/Ccp4Temp/HemH_4_1_mtz.tmp" -colin "/*/*/\[IMEAN,SIGIMEAN\]"
-colano "/*/*/\[I(+),SIGI(+),I(-),SIGI(-)\]"

This is different from yours (-mtzin, not -hklin):

ctruncate -hklin "C:/Ccp4Temp/oye1_77-73_3_1_mtz.tmp" -hklout "C:/Ccp4Temp/oye1_77-73_3_3_mtz.tmp" -colin "/*/*/\[IMEAN,SIGIMEAN\]" -colano "/*/*/\[I(+),SIGI(+),I(-),SIGI(-)\]" -colout yap-ii-77-73 -nres 400

Please try using ccp4i or try -mtzin instead of -hklin.
Does it work?

Dear Developers,
I was trying to get ccp4 up and running on a Windows7 pc, and even though the installation proceeds smoothly,
I cant get any task to finish succesfully.
Below is what the log file has to say about it.
I saw someone having trouble with the windows install as well. I have the installation packaged posted by Marcin installed.
Thanks for any help
