#46938: Miriad installed using MacPorts not working -------------------------------+--------------------- Reporter: gemma.anderson@… | Owner: peter@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: miriad | -------------------------------+--------------------- Description changed by mf2k@…: Old description:

Hi,

I have just tried to install Miriad on Mavericks using MacPorts. No errors were output during the installation. However, when I start Miriad I get the following error: MIRIAD VERSION: cat: /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_science_miriad/miriad/work/miriad-4.3.8/VERSION: No such file or directory

I then try to run something like "uvplt" and it just Aborts.

I have tried installing the Mavericks version of MacPorts but that has not fixed the problem (this was not a migration so it might not have been done properly)

Thanks very much, Gemma Anderson

What is the specific error message that happens when you run something like `uvplt`? Just "Aborted" or anything more? When I type 'go' for any task it just prints 'Abort' and exits Miriad.

I think my Miriad installation worked before I upgraded to Mavericks. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/46938#comment:4> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

Hmmm, OK. Do you get the same results if you run a command such as `uvplt` directly from the terminal, rather than inside the MIRIAD shell?

No. If I run uvplt directly from the terminal it all works properly. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/46938#comment:6> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

I'll have to find a coworker with a newer computer that I can borrow to see if that makes a difference. It sounds like you're working off of a fresh install, but just in case, it might possibly help to completely remove miriad, make sure that all other MacPorts packages are updated, then reinstall. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/46938#comment:8> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

If there's a complaint about multiple versions, you type something like `sudo port uninstall miriad@4.3.8.20141105`. After you've done that, a `sudo port selfupdate` and `sudo port upgrade outdated` would be good for verifying that your MacPorts installation is fully up-to-date. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/46938#comment:10> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
