Hi there,

The astrometry correction was doing well on several files and, suddenly, it started to fail. Now, the following error is returned for every file:

--I autoastrom, v0.6-0
--I Running AUTOASTROM on /home/felipe/iraf/spartan/2011B/20111210/csrSO2011B-004_1210007-4530d3.fits.

after#3684 (bgexec): can't unset "::visibilityState(.gaia1.shelp.l1)": no such element in array
    while executing
"unset ::visibilityState(.gaia1.shelp.l1)"

What should I do to fix it?

Cheers,
Felipe

The problem is that the autoastrom script doesn't know where the Starlink perl is. If you look at the shebang line of $STARLINK_DIR/Perl/bin/autoastrom you will see the problem.

We meant to change everything to use

 #!/bin/env starperl

but we seem to have missed a couple. If you edit that autoastrom script things might work.

Hi all,

I've istalled the latest version of GAIA (Kapuahi) and now, I'm trying to perform astrometric correction on some images.
When I run the sinple "Automatic position matching" using any of the available catalogues, I got the following error

can't execute "/home/felipe/programs/star-kapuahi/Perl/bin/autoastrom": no such file or directory (bgexec): can't execute "/home/felipe/programs/star-kapuahi/Perl/bin/autoastrom": no such file or directory
    while executing
"blt::bgexec [scope forret_(::gaia::GaiaAutoAstrom::gaiaForeignExec0)]  -keepnewline 0  -error [scope forerr_(::gaia::GaiaAutoAstrom::gaiaForeignExec0)..."
    ("eval" body line 1)
    invoked from within
"eval "blt::bgexec \[scope forret_($this)\]  -keepnewline $keepnewlines  -error \[scope forerr_($this)\]  -output \[scope forout_($this)\]  -onoutput \..."

I've tried other versions but I couldn't fix the problem.
Do you have any idea how to fix it?

Cheers,
Felipe
