This is standard gotcha number 17, you are picking up "ncsmask" from XtalView rather
than the CCP4 one, see
http://www.ccp4.ac.uk/problems/general-probs.php#general_wrong_prog
Basically, you need to fix the path in some way so that the CCP4 one comes first.
check with "which -a ncsmask"

Subject: [ccp4bb] ncs phased refinement
Hi All,
I was trying to run NCS Phased refinement in the gui of CCP4 ( Refmac_5.2.0005) and getting the following error. I just pasted below the last part of the log file. Any help is greatly appreciated.
