Bugs

Autonaming of ASCII region files uses the .fits extension instead of .reg as would be expected.

In general, autonaming only works for simple cases.

Bugs fixed in CIAO 4.5

The following is a list of bugs that were fixed in the CIAO 4.5 software release.

Tool fails if software installation path is too long 

ERROR: The last_exit of celldetect: 134
 (15 Dec 2011)

If the full path to celldetect is more than ~100 characters, the tool will fail with an error. The tool saves the filename in case it is needed for an error message, and the buffer size is exceeded.

Workaround:

The only workaround is to move the software to a shorter path location (e.g. a higher directory).
