I was going to try to reproduce your problem, but it looks like they've already updated that snapshot since there is no 1.2509 now: http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/download.html You might try the latest, 1.2524, snapshot if you really need something newer than the production release. -Randy On May 31, 2008, at 11:50 AM, Bruce D.

I have a Mac G4 PPC running OS X 10.3.9 on which previous versions of chimera have run without incident. I installed chimera-1.2509 of May 01, 2008 after removing the chimera-1.2492 of Feb 11, 2008 I had been using. However, when I attempted to run chimera-1.2509 it did not start and the following error messages were written to the console.log file accessible by console.app rather than to the X-terminal:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Applications/Chimera.app/Contents/Resources/share/__main__.py", line 65, in <module>
value = chimeraInit.init(sys.argv)
File "/Applications/Chimera.app/Contents/Resources/share/chimeraInit.py", line 279, in init
import chimera
File "/Applications/Chimera.app/Contents/Resources/share/chimera/ __init__.py", line 15, in <module>
from _chimera import *
ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (init_chimera)
This appears to be specific to the Mac OS X version as the Windows version of chimera-1.2509 works. Obviously, I removed chimera-1.2509 from the Mac and reinstalled chimera-1.2492 of Feb 11, 2008 which does work on this Mac.
