Aegean help! #178

Closed ashy2212 closed 2 years ago

Hi Paul,

I am new to radio astronomy and python programming however I have lots of radio images I need to extract source parameters. I have installed Aegean on my machine and I am attempting the steps outlined in the Quick Start Guide.

I am getting an error in my terminal window that I do not understand(attached)

I am using python 3.8.8, or MacOS Big Sur is this the problem?

Many thanks,

Ash

Hi Ash,

The issue that you describe here is the same as #137 -> Multiprocessing on mac with python 3.8 or later is currently broken for Aegean. Currently the only suggestion that I have is to either use a different computer (a linux based machine) or to run AegeanTools from within a container (see the discussion in #137 for a note about the container solution).

This issue is on my road-map for development however I don't yet have a timeline for completion.

Paul.
