Thank you, Florian! That did it. This should be included in the docs.

Hi Engin,

I encountered the same issue a couple of months ago. As I understand, the REMOVE.HKL file will only be used if you specify the spacegroup and unit cell in the XDS.INP file.

Cheers,

Florian

Hi all,

After about a year of not working with XDS, I was a little surprised to see that adding a REMOVE.HKL file to the current directory and running CORRECT does not remove outliers. I still see the same reflections reported at the end of my new CORRECT.LP file and I have grepped the XDS_ASCII.HKL file to observe, to my dismay, that the "removed" are still present. Since I do not see this reported and this must be a daily used option by many of you out there, I am guessing that I must be doing something wrong, but it escapes me.

For my and anybody else's sanity, here is my REMOVE.HKL file:

I am using the most recently updated version of xds on a Scientific Linux 6.0 (64-bit) machine.

Hey, I just figured out that using the December 6, 2010 version installed back in January on a different 64-bit linux machine, the REMOVE.HKL file was successfully used. So this may be a problem with the recent bug-fix update (which we have through SBGrid).

All clues, hits, pointers are appreciated.

Best,

Engin
