Eleanor,I downloaded again ccp4-4.2.2_Linux.tar.gz and re-installed truncate. It worked this time. Perhaps the file got corrupted during ftp transfer?
Anyway, thanks for your help. All the best, Fred. Eleanor Dodson wrote:
I dont understand it - it works for me.. Here is the log file - I guess it is a later version of truncate? Vellieux Frederic wrote:Dear Eleanor,Thanks for taking a look at the data. The mtz file is still v4.2.2 (my own programs read that library and I only convert to the latest MTZ definition once I have used my software --- I have no time to keep up with the constantly changing MTZ format and to adapt my own software to this new format --- I only have 2 hands and they are very busy at the moment).The data are nothing mysterious: lysozyme tetragonal form, I am still teaching this practical course I used to teach at the Royal University of Groningen 1985-1987 but we go a little further than the precession photographs we were taking at the time. You will note that the space group is P41212, this is done on purpose, doing as if we were solving the 3D structure de novo and thus not knowing the space group.All the best, and regards to Guy.

Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance,Fred. Vellieux Frederic wrote:Dear Eleanor, Hope all is well with you (and with Guy).We haven't touched the atomsf.lib file. It is the same in all versions of ccp4 we have lying around here. Will go on looking for a solution (perhaps the problem lies with the fact that the input MTZ file already contains columns for FP and SIGFP, that have not been properly scaled --- I'll try to remove those columns with sftools and see if truncate still chokes).Thanks for your advice. And wish you a nice afternoon, Fred.
