Hi there - That error is indeed something totally misleading from python. Somehow, the error messages get hard-coded at compilation time and list the directories that compilation took place at (in this case Gerrit's laptop). We will try and suppress this message since its totally misleading.

Yes, that is our intention. CCP4 would probably be at the third level of a hierarchy including: Macromolecular crystallographic techniques Structure solution, analysis and visualisation software The CCP4 suite So there would be room for other software packages at the same level as CCP4,

Thanks for the replies so far. Here is some more information I should have included last time. The COORDS file is being written, but mosflm seems unable to read it. The simple things like the file permissions are all correct and there is plenty of free space on the disk. Thanks again Steve

I am working with a small protein in a relatively high space group p6322 and have good data to a modest 2.5 A resolution. During the first rounds of restrained refinement however the B factors drop to an average of 15 and as low as 2 A^3. This has the effect of producing large amounts of negative

Hello Mona, I am guessing you have the atom name,number and coordinates in your file.
