I think this is because your script actually did not do the background
subtraction.  The "read_xdi()" command reads in the raw data, which
probably contains "energy" and "mu" arrays, but not "k" and "chi" arrays.
 You said you got autobk and ffts working, you probably want to just add a

   autobk(data, rbkg=1.0)

command  (maybe with other options).  That will add "k" and "chi" arrays to
the "data" group, which feffit() is expecting.

I guess the error message could be clearer there....
