L.S.,
I am running the new Humu release of starlink on Mac OS X 10.5.1. I
load files from the ACSIS correlator into Gaia. Every time I try
sending a spectrum to Splat (using the "send: replace" or "send: add"
button in the "Display image sections of a cube" window), the
following happens:
- the first window of Splat is loaded, as it should
- before the spectrum appears, a message pops up saying something
similar to "Spectrum '/Users/MHD/data/GaiaTempSpectrum3.sdf' has an
unknown type, format or name syntax."
- the only option is to click "OK" in the error pop up window
If I use the "File" menu in Splat to open one of the tempspectra, it
results in the same error, but there is an extra option on the error
window besides "OK": "show details". If I click that, this is the
extra information:
"""
uk.ac.starlink.splat.util.SplatException: Spectrum
'/Users/MHD/data/GaiaTempSpectrum2.sdf' has an unknown type, format or
name syntax.

at uk.ac.starlink.splat.iface.SpectrumIO$2.run(SpectrumIO.java:260)
"""
I have also had this problem with the previous release (Puana) under
Mac OS X 10.5, but not with Puana under Linux (Red Hat). I haven't yet
tried Humu under Linux. How can the format, type or name syntax be
okay if I export from Gaia under Linux, but wrong if I export from Mac
Gaia?
Has anyone else come across this error? Any advice is appreciated.
Best regards,
Matthijs van der Wiel
