Hi Paul,
yup that is a buffer length problem somewhere, so the only fix is to use
a shorter name. Sorry.
The fuller message is:
!! Truncation during copy (destination 132 < source 182) of
! '/loc/pwda/pdraper/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratc
! h/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/...
! DAT_PUT: Error writing value(s) to an HDS primitive.
! The list of valuess supplied for parameter IN was too long.
! FITS2NDF: Error converting a FITS file into an NDF.
! Application exit status DAT__TRUNC, Text truncated
! /loc/pwda/pdraper/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/sc
! ratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scratch/scr
! atch/scratch/scratch/ngc1275.fits temp
David, seems to be in a call to GRP_GROUP (found using that spelling
mistake, "valuess"), which is odd. Aren't groups allowed to be 255
characters?
Cheers,
Peter.
