Aha! Attached log file. Sorry. Didn't notice that on my phone :( I concur with Matt about Larch. And at the risk of irking Matt, you could try forcing the use of Ifeffit. While maybe not the best choice, it would isolate problems with Demeter from problems with Larch and your python installation. B On 9/3/20 11:00 AM, Matt Newville wrote:

Hi Angshuman,

The logfileyou attached says that Athena is using Larch and that is where the error is coming from. A few comments on that:   a) it looks like it is using Python 2.7 which actually has not been supported for xraylarch for some time now (well over a year)   b) that the `pyfai` module is not installed, which should not be required but is what is causing the actual error.

Having `pyfai` not installed should not cause an error, but this all suggests that your xraylarch installation is quite all. I would suggest reinstalling xraylarch using Python3 and see if that fixes the problem.

Dear sir, I am new to this mailing list and excuse me if the question had already been asked. I am not able to import data in the Athena software. I tried to import some of the examples data like Fe_lepidocrocite.000 in the Fe standards folder while importing the data I encountered an error (screenshot has been attached along with the log file generated in the terminal). I am using Linux Mint 18.3 Sylvia OS and perl 5, version 22, subversion 1 (v5.22.1). I followed the instruction for installation here "https://bruceravel.github.io/demeter/documents/SinglePage/demeter_nonroot.ht... https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://bruceravel.github.io/demeter/documents/S..." I will be thankful if you could suggest something to getting rid of this issue.

Dear Sir, Thank you very much for your quick suggestions and for identifying the problem that it will not ever be fixed, I have installed the Athena software in Windows 7 in Virtualbox and all the files are opening smoothly without any issue. I have attached a screenshot of that. Thank you Angshuman Gupta Ph.D. scholar IIT Bombay, India On Thu, Sep 3, 2020 at 8:50 PM Matt Newville wrote:

You can use ifeffit. It is just not supported and has known limitations and problems that will not ever be fixed.
