Chimera on my Red Hat system, somewhat understandably but not acceptably in my opinion, dumps core on this PDB file. In CASP, if you can't define a part of the model you submit it with coordinates set to 0. I wonder if Chimera is trying to divide by zero (although I would except a SIGFPE, not a segmentation fault). I did a remote-display from socrates and it had the problem as well; there, I at least got a popup window saying "_chimera: unknown exception" and was able to see this in the reply log: Error processing trigger "addModel": _chimera error: can't normalize zero length array (see reply log for Python traceback info) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/chimera/share/__main__.py", line 56, in ? value = chimeraInit.init(sys.argv) File "/usr/local/chimera/share/chimeraInit.py", line 240, in init prefixableType=1) File "/usr/local/chimera/share/chimera/__init__.py", line 628, in open skipViewAll=skipViewAll) File "/usr/local/chimera/share/chimera/__init__.py", line 509, in add self.triggers.activateTrigger(self.ADDMODEL, models) File "/usr/local/chimera/share/chimera/triggerSet.py", line 198, in activateTrigger self._triggerDict[name].activate(data) File "/usr/local/chimera/share/chimera/triggerSet.py", line 120, in activate ret = handler.invoke(self._name, triggerData) File "/usr/local/chimera/share/chimera/triggerSet.py", line 82, in invoke self._funcData, triggerData) File "/usr/local/chimera/share/chimera/__init__.py", line 837, in checkKsdssp model.computeSecondaryStructure(-0.5, 5, 4) _chimera error: can't normalize zero length array shortly after visiting the window a few more times, chimera segfaults.

Sorry: here's the file:

This is fixed now and will be in the next (post-1602) release. --Eric On Wednesday, September 11, 2002, at 02:38 PM, David E. Konerding wrote:
