Paul just pulled off a heroic fix (rev 2310).  Please try that.

Dear Christian:

I'm getting it now too.  I forgot to cc you.  I get it on 32-bit but  
not 64-bit SL.  I've sent the crash report to Paul .


Check to see if you have anything in

~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports

that has coot in the title and a recent date.

Dear Bill,

Thanks for your quick reply!  I installed the new revision but it  
doesn't seem to make a difference (to my problems). I guess you're  
right and it's because I am still running 10.4 - think it's time to  
upgrade to 10.6, finally!


Again, many thanks and best regards,

Hi Christian:

I just committed coot 0.6-pre-1-revision-2283 to fink cvs.  It  
fixes a

bug on 64-bit where the menu would freeze when superposition is
invoked.  I suppose there is a 0.001 chance that it fixes the
other problem too.  I have no way to test on 10.5 intel (I still have
10.6) and haven't had direct access to 10.4 for a long time. This
could be a problem with coot or with one of many of its ca. 230
dependencies.

From what I have read, you can upgrade directly to SL (US $30, UK
£25), despite the propaganda on the box. I have ccp4 and coot and the
other crystallographic fink things running all in 64-bit now. I'm
hoping these will now pass the 70S ribosome test.

I hope this works in the meantime.

there are two main issues:

1. coot freezes and closes down after selecting e.g. the preferences
menue

2. coot writes an empty 0-coot.state.scm file no matter what's
loaded into coot.

Any hints to what we can do? We really need the stereo and therefore
revision 2225 or
higher

That may be because core dump is turned off (which is default on many
Linux distros).  If you are using bash, try ulimit -c to see if it's
the case (it'll return the maximum allowed core size).  To turn it on,
issue ulimit -c unlimited command.  For more details, see man
bash (not man ulimit as it is shell command).  It only affects the
current shell.

I'm going to make a wild guess and suggest it is a python version  
mismatch.


If you open the python scripting window and type in

help()

what do you see in the console window?

I get this:


BL INFO:: command input is:  help()

Welcome to Python 2.6!  This is the online help utility.
