Hello Marjorie,

this is a cut and paste from the CIAO FAQ:

******************************************
  1.Why does the tool not execute when I get the following errors?

    pget: parameter not found : ...

    This error message generally occurs when there is a mismatch between the
parameter file in your own directory (the one that the tool is trying to
access)
    and the CIAO defaults. This may be due to the installation of a new
version of CIAO without initializing your parameter file directory. To fix
this problem,
    you have to delete the tool's parameter file from your own directory. The
CIAO software will then automatically access the correct one:

     
    unix% dmlist acis_evt2.fits blocks
    pget: parameter not found : verbose
    unix% plist dmlist

    Parameters for /home/username/cxcds_param/dmlist.par <- This is the
parameter file to delete

            infile = mrk_110evt.fits Input dataset/block specification
               opt = blocks Option
          (outfile = ) Output file (optional)
             (rows = ) Range of table rows to print (min:max)
            (cells = ) Range of array indices to print
(min:max)
             (mode = ql)

    unix% /bin/rm /home/username/cxcds_param/dmlist.par

    As visible in the example, you have to delete the parameter file that is
displayed at the top of your plist output.

*******************************
I hope this will be helpful.
Elisa
