Runtime error while using a mask with the auto_poly_baseline() function

[bugs]

The following is the code snippet causing the error:

    # Auto - baseline IF = 1, POL = 1
    sc_quo.set_unit('channel')
    sel1=selector()
    sel1.set_ifs(ifs)
    sel1.set_polarisations(pols)
    sc_quo.set_selection(sel1)
    mask1 = sc_quo.create_mask([1,100],invert=True)
    sc_quo.auto_poly_baseline(insitu=True,order=0,mask=mask1,plot=True)
    sc_quo.set_selection()

The following is the text of the error message:

[Malte Marquarding]

This must be specific to your data:

I run:

s = scantable("test/data/mopra_dualif.rpf")
q = s.auto_quotient()
m = q.create_mask([1,100],invert=True)
q.auto_poly_baseline(insitu=0,order=0,mask=m,plot=True)

it seems to be fine.

If you can't work out the problem, tell me where I can access your data set.
