troubles with file format

[Mark Miller]

Dear Tracy and all,

I am trying to help a user make a run, and I am stumped.

I have two files that look to me to be pretty much in the same format, but only one works.

I attach them here.

The one that fails gives the message: ERROR: There's a problem with the calibration file

The one that succeeds, well, succeeds.

Each file has a newline at the end of the final line.

If I remove the newline, the error message changes to

The file "infile.cal" has 1 lines. Could not find line 2

Any advice would be most appreciated.

Mark

Hi Mark,

It seems like the file that fails has Windows line endings. Have you tried converting those to Unix and seeing if that works? Otherwise, it's difficult to troubleshoot without the other files.

Cheers!

Tracy

Hi Tracy,

 

Thanks for your response. I have tried with unix line endings and got the same outcome,

 

The user says he installed it locally and also gets the same response.

So it isn’t a cipres issue per se.

 

He agreed to contact you directly, and I hope to hear the outcome of that.

 

All the best,

Mark

Ok. The only other thing that comes to mind is that the difference between the files is that one uses a calibration density (the one that works) with a hyperprior on the exponential rate and the other is for when the user has specified the FBD model (from Heath et al. 2014). The arguments at execution that work for the working file will not work for the other one (with the -t specified for the calibration).

Cheers,

Tracy

Yeah, thanks Tracy.

I had a doubt as to whether the issue might be the flag, and not actually line ending per se, even though the error message suggests that is the issue.

The format of this file looked right  compared to the one other example of a cal file I saw that used  the –t flag.

I wondered if it was possible that the parser was expecting some additional input it wasn’t finding.

I will let Jim provide his files, and we can go from there…

 

Best,

Mark
