Hello Aaron,

this usually means that you have a second version of phaser installed, e.g. from the phenix package. To find out, go to a terminal from which you would start ccp4i and type 'which phaser'. My guess is that the answer to that command does not show phaser in the ccp4-directory.

To circumvent this problem you have to make sure that ccp4i 'sees' the phaser from ccp4 first. There are several ways to do this. 1) if you never use phaser from the phenix distribution, simply rename it to e.g. phaser-phenix or anything else. 2) make sure, the variable 'ccp4_first_in_path'is set to 1 in the ccp4 initialisation script AND make sure CCP4 is set up AFTER phenix 3) before starting ccp4i from a terminal, change the PATH variable manually so that $CCP4/bin comes before the phenix path

Dear all,
When running phaser with ccp4i the program exits with a message
saying that the program had a fatal runtime error and that it could
not open the mtz file. All other programs I use with ccp4i manage to
run without problems.
Any ideas?
Thank's for any input.
Aaron
