Sourceforge problem
by Peter Southon 18 Feb '04

18 Feb '04

Hello again, I've been having problems using Sourceforge.net to download Ifeffit. I've mainly been trying to use the Flow Australian mirror, but none of them seem to be responding, returning an Error (110) "Connection timed out" message. Have other people been having this problem? (or it might be something funny at my end) Meanwhile I'll just use the cars sever.

Re: merging

Bruce, I succeeded in merging the k-plots of several files in Athena, but failed at opening the data and graphing it in Artemis for fitting purposes. Is this merging function purely for use in Athena? You'd made it sound like I could use that data for fitting. If it is possible to export the merge to Artemis for a fit, let me know how. Thanks, Dan

FT transform

Hi, i wonder if there is anyone to tell me what is the advantage of using real and imaginary part of transform in data and fit, compared with magnitude plot. Best, DD _________________________________________________________________ 与联机的朋友进行交流，请使用 MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com/cn

RE: [Ifeffit] Ifeffit 1.2.5a for Windows

Hello, Whatever I observed two days ago didn't repeat itself yesterdy night - I must have mixed uninstall and install sequences. Sorry for the false alarm! Anyhow, by removing all of Ifeffit 1.2.5 by Windows uninstall - and the remaining fold by 'hand' - I could install a clean, working Ifeffit 1.2.4 environment. I then un-installled everything again, and I installed Ifeffit 1.2.5a and Ifeffit updater on W2K. Ifeffit 1.2.5a apparently loaded the datafile and printed the data in the plotting window. Thanks, Matt and Bruce!

Ifeffit 1.2.5a for Windows
by Matt Newville 09 Feb '04

09 Feb '04

Hi Everyone, OK, ifeffit-1.2.5a.exe is available on sourceforge and the main Ifeffit page. This seems to fix the plotting problem -- it worked on the 5 WinXP machines I tried. An 'update' was also posted (we're now at update #5) that will fix the problem (in the next day or so, depending on when you last ran athena or other Ifeffit applications). If you've installed ifeffit-1.2.5.exe and can't wait that long, you can apply the update by hand by downloading http://cars9.uchicago.edu/ifeffit/updates/ifup_005.zip and unzipping this (following the directory structure!) in the main Ifeffit directory (C:\Program Files\Ifeffit or C:\Ifeffit). If you haven't installed the broken ifeffit-1.2.5, please don't use this shortcut, as this update is not a complete update from 1.2.4!! Sorry for the problem, and thanks to Doug, Scott, and Michel for the reports! --Matt

Hello, > I suspect that something else must be going on for Michel. I've > seen Ifeffit 1.2.4 plus Updater 1.1 work well on many Windows > machines. I haven't heard otherwise until this report. I'll try another bunch of tests tonight (fortunately -if might say so- it is my home computer that got into severe trouble), and keep a complete reccord of messages,etc... (just mentioning that: could it be updater behavior could be altered upon interaction with a firewall?) I downloaded the versions from sourceforge.net, but there is absolutely no reason to believe that these versions are any different from the ones posted at Chicago. So: don't worry for me, just wait tomorrow for more news. Best regards, Michel Schlegel

Trying to get started
by doug pease 09 Feb '04

09 Feb '04

Hello All, I am trying to get started using Athena/Artemis. But I have the following problem. My computer is nearly brand new, uses XP and I now have 384 MB of RAM to go along with only 2.71 out of 35.54 GB used on the hard drive. But after I import data into Athena, and give the go ahead, the graphic screen just comes up and hangs up blank. It does NOT graph the data. If I try this on my lab computer that uses 98 there is no such problem.....the graphic screen works well. (There I get the well known "out of parameter space" error if I try to get much further. I would prefer to use my home computer, but will also try to fix up the old lab computer to work as recommended.) I am suspicious that this problem of the graphic screen hanging up with the XP computer might have something to do with my new computer having a liquid crystal display monitor???? Any ideas?? Sincerely, Doug Pease

The very same thing happened to me on a Windows 2000 PC. I tried to remove and reinstall completely Ifeffit 1.2.5, but it didn't work. Then I removed Ifeffit 1.2.5 (including erasing the folders by hand once the 'uninstall' software was run), and installed Ifeffit 1.2.4: same trouble. And Ifeffit 1.2.2: bis repetita non placent. Finally, I had to dig out an old Ifeffit 1.0075 version (sigh...) Also, these problems appeared after I once ran the Ifeffit Updater 1.0. I wonder if there is any communication problem between the updater and the Ifeffit package, or if the new Ifeffit packages are writing files that can be neither removed upon uninstall, nor overwritten on re-installation. Best regards, Michel Schlegel

Hi Doug, This may be a brand new bug in the Ifeffit 1.2.5 download. I am also using XP, and it was working fine under 1.2.4. I downloaded 1.2.5, and when I try to import any data (even the example files that come with the package) into either Artemis or Athena, they crash when they try to display on the graphics screen. To be specific, I can see the data get read in, but when it gets to the stage of graphing the data, the main Artemis or Athena screen vanishes, the program icons go away from the task bar, and the graphics screen remains, but it is blank. I had not yet determined for sure that this was the fault of the new version...I was going to try some things like redownloading it, and checking to see if 1.2.4 still runs, but if you're seeing this too it may be a problem. --Scott Calvin Sarah Lawrence College
