Emma Hogan, Gemini Data Workshop, July 19-22, 2010 Tips and Tricks

Emma Hogan, Gemini Data Workshop, July 19-22, 2010 Tips and Tricks

Emma Hogan, Gemini Data Workshop, July 19-22, 2010 Error: Warning: Attempt to delete a nonexistent file (uparm$pipe2180) Cause: Missing login.cl file and / or uparm directory Solution: cl> dir home$ shell> mkiraf Tips and Tricks: General

Emma Hogan, Gemini Data Workshop, July 19-22, 2010 Error: ERROR: task `foo' has no param file Cause: Error in the pathname to the foo package Solution: Check the installation of package foo Check the package definition in extern.pkg (in iraf$unix/hlib) … don’t forget the trailing slash! Tips and Tricks: General

Emma Hogan, Gemini Data Workshop, July 19-22, 2010 Error: ERROR: Cannot open connected subprocess (pkg$x_pkg.e) Cause: Missing executable Solution: Check pkg$bin. / cl> show pkg Tips and Tricks: General

Emma Hogan, Gemini Data Workshop, July 19-22, 2010 Tips and Tricks: General Error: ERROR: parameter `foo' not found Cause: Gemini data reduction software package updated Solution: cl> unlearn gemini shell> rm –rf uparm/*

Emma Hogan, Gemini Data Workshop, July 19-22, 2010 Tips and Tricks: GMOS Error: ERROR: Attempt to access undefined local variable `mdfrow’ Cause: MDFROW keyword is written to the header by gscut gscut has not been run on the data Solution: Run gscut

Emma Hogan, Gemini Data Workshop, July 19-22, 2010 Tips and Tricks: GMOS

Emma Hogan, Gemini Data Workshop, July 19-22, 2010 Error: Lines in MOS arc spectra look weird Cause: Distortion correction along the spatial axis is poor Solution: set gswavelength.step = 2 for MOS data Tips and Tricks: GMOS

Emma Hogan, Gemini Data Workshop, July 19-22, 2010 Error: Negative / mismatched values in the data after running gsreduce with fl_over=yes Cause: Use of processed biases from the archive (which are created using fl_over=no) Solution: Create biases with gbias using fl_over=yes Tips and Tricks: GMOS
