[buster-discuss] Ccp4-8

[Kikuti Carlos]

Hallo Clemens,

Nice to talk to you again.

First thing I did (a few minutes ago) was to jump to Buster 20220608, and everything is working now.

But just in case you are still curious: yes, ccp4-8 is sourced by default (in .zprofile, I’m using ZSH under Darwin) and the ccp4-setup script kept asking me for the font84.dat file, in an endless loop… if it’s important for you to know more, please let me know what to look for. From my side this is not a problem anymore.

Well, thanks a lot, and keep up this great work!

All the best,

Dear Carlos,

After upgrading CCP4 to version 8

Good.

- and having uninstalled version 7 -

Ok.

I’m having trouble with buster_20220203.

Not good.

It is not reading the
mtz (from Staraniso) properly,

Always a sign of problems with your CCP4 setup, yes.

and when I tried the procedure described here [1] I got stuck
because the file font84.dat doesn’t exist.

Did you actually get stuck (as in: it keeps asking you for the
location of the font84.dat file)? Or did it just not work as expected?

Do you have the newly installed CCP4 8.0 version set up /before/
running the ccp4-setup tool? As in

 . /where/ever/ccp4-8.0/bin/ccp4.setup-sh        # bash/sh/zsh

   - or -

 source /where/ever/ccp4-8.0/bin/ccp4.setup-csh  # tcsh/csh


If that was the case, the ccp4-setup script should realise that you
are running a CCP4 version newer than 6.3.0 (which was the last one
using that font84.dat file) and would never ask you about it.

Do I need to reinstall CCP4-7?

No.

Or is there a better way to make buster work again?

The easiest is always to just re-install BUSTER in an environment
where CCP4 is set up (see above). Alternatively, if you update to a
new CCP4 version, just edit the file

 $BDG_home/machines/*/ccp4.setup

(where $BDG_home is the BUSTER installation directory) and change line
13 from e.g.

 CCP4="/public/xtal/ccp4-7.1"

(obviously different for you) to point to the latest CCP4
installation, e.g.

 CCP4="/public/xtal/ccp4-8.0"


Does that help?

Cheers

Clemens, Claus & Gerard

PS: we need to update that installation page - thanks for highlighting
   this via your report!
