Hi Bryan, Yes, "No merge original index" files should work fine. This file should be converted by the autosol wizard to premerged scalepack during the run. In your case this seems to be so as the file header that is being read during the middle of the run 1 -987 86.052 86.052 132.608 90.000 90.000 90.000 p41212 is premerged scalepack. Now what does not make sense is the error message "You have set the keywords readdenzo and unmerged". I am not sure where that has come from. I just ran a SAD dataset to test this with an unmerged original index file, and it ran fine for me. If this doesn't help, could you send me ([email protected]) your input script and datafile ( or even the first 1000 lines of the datafile) and I can try to debug it. Thanks! -Tom T At 01:24 PM 12/19/2007, you wrote:

confusion w/ "no merge original index" data file in phenix.autosol. this should work, right?

caveat - the 'nmoi' hkl is actually from scala, but that usually is fine w/ e.g. solve-2.13. 'nmoi' requires declaration of cell='(numbers)' on command line.

phenix.autosol seems to go through all the usual checks fine, then reports (in AutoSol_run_2_/LAST.LOG): ".... The error seems to be at line 0 Here is what the first few lines of this file look like: 1 -987 86.052 86.052 132.608 90.000 90.000 90.000 p41212 You have set the keywords readdenzo and unmerged Please check whether you should have set readformatted or readtrek or premerged ...."

... 'readdenzo' and 'unmerged' are just right for 'nmoi' files. etc.
