Solved it! Not sure what the problem was, but a restart of Parallels did the trick.

Thanks!

I'm a new user trying to use FEFF6l through the "Make FEFF SS Paths" module in SixPack. I downloaded iffefit-1.2.10.exe and installed  everything to default locations (which puts a copy of feff6l.exe inside the fefftemp folder of Sixpack, where I am told it needs to be).

I open the "Make FEFF SS Paths" module, enter scattering information and go to run FEFF. I select FEFF6/7 and enter "feff6l" next to FEFF Command (without quotes). I hit Run FEFF - then I get an error:
-----

 I'm running Windows XP through Parallels on an Intel Mac (running Leopard). Other modules of SixPack are running fine. I tried updating SixPack from the  SixPack website (as was suggested in the ifeffit install documentation). Does anyone have any ideas?

Thank you!!
