Description

If you try and read RPFITS files directly from a DVD, rather than copying them to the harddrive first, ASAP returns the error:

ASAP>data = scantable('/Volumes/METHMB_PIGGYBACK_20/2007-04-29_2143_G5523501.rpf') Auto averaging integrations Importing /Volumes/METHMB_PIGGYBACK_20/2007-04-29_2143_G5523501.rpf...

Cannot open file

Failed to open MBFITS file: /Volumes/METHMB_PIGGYBACK_20/2007-04-29_2143_G5523501.rpf


Traceback (most recent call last):

RuntimeError: Creation of PKSreader failed

When the same files are copied to the harddrive (with everything else the same), the files can be read OK.

Resolution: wontfix

Mark advised me that io implementation are not standard in fortran, so sometime it can try to get write access when it shouldn't.

I doubt I can do anything about this.
