Hello, I'm trying to export my distance constraints to cns with the format converter, but I'm only getting the following error message: "Error while exporting file: /path/to/file.tbl" I'm sure that I've have write access on my destination path. Maybe more details on the console: ############################################### # FormatConverter: executing writeConstraints # ############################################### ####################################################### # FormatConverter: executing writeDistanceConstraints # ####################################################### Exception in thread Thread-7: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/threading.py", line 442, in __bootstrap self.run() File "/opt/ccpnmr/ccpnmr1.0/python/ccpnmr/format/gui/ImportExportFormatPopup.py", line 91, in run self.returnValue = self.__target(*self.__args, **self.__kwargs) File "/opt/ccpnmr/ccpnmr1.0/python/ccpnmr/format/converters/DataFormat.py", line 2757, in writeDistanceConstraints return self.writeConstraints(*args, **keywds) File "/opt/ccpnmr/ccpnmr1.0/python/ccpnmr/format/converters/DataFormat.py", line 2877, in writeConstraints self.getChainMapping(resetMapping = self.resetMapping) File "/opt/ccpnmr/ccpnmr1.0/python/ccpnmr/format/converters/DataFormat.py", line 7957, in getChainMapping interaction = self.multiDialog.chainExport(self.guiParent,chainList,requireChainCode = requireChainCode) File "/opt/ccpnmr/ccpnmr1.0/python/ccpnmr/format/general/MultiDialog.py", line 882, in chainExport return self.chainExportFunction(guiParent,requireChainCode) File "/opt/ccpnmr/ccpnmr1.0/python/ccpnmr/format/gui/MultiDialog.py", line 265, in chainExportFunction requireChainCode) File "/opt/ccpnmr/ccpnmr1.0/python/ccpnmr/format/gui/ChainExportPopup.py", line 91, in __init__ TemporaryBasePopup.__init__(self, parent=parent, title="Project '%s': " % project.name + 'Export chains', modal=False, transient=True) File "/opt/ccpnmr/ccpnmr1.0/python/memops/gui/BasePopup.py", line 84, in __init__ Tkinter.Toplevel.__init__(self, parent, *args, **kw) File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1906, in __init__ BaseWidget.__init__(self, master, 'toplevel', cnf, {}, extra) File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1862, in __init__ self.tk.call( RuntimeError: main thread is not in main loop So, what's wrong here? Or have I forgotten something crucial before the export? regards Marco -- Dipl. Chem.
