Not able to load gtburst #117

Closed ShabnamIyyani closed 2 years ago

ShabnamIyyani commented 2 years ago
I have installed the fermi science tools within the environment of threeML. In this environment when I try to open the gtburst, I get the following error:

Loading pyBurstAnalysisGUI v. 03-00-00p0 WARNING: version mismatch between CFITSIO header (v3.47) and linked library (v3.46).

This probably means that tk wasn't installed properly.

The versions of the tcl and tk that I have installed are

conda list tcl

packages in environment at /Users/shabnamiyyani/opt/miniconda3/envs/threeML:

The workaround is to edit the /Users/shabnamiyyani/opt/miniconda3/envs/threeML/lib/tk8.6/tk.tcl file to change the version number it requires to the one you have or just comment out the line entirely so it won't check. The version of Tk doesn't really seem to matter to the tools. When you run gtburst again, you'll probably get similar error about the Tcl version and can do the same thing to the configuration file it lists. Then, gtburst should start without problems.

After commenting those lines, I do not get that error again. Now, while typing the gtburst command, Xquartz is activated and the window just blinks but I am not able to see the window. Also, no error appears in the terminal.

Sometimes the gtburst window is automatically minimized when it launches. You might want to check your task bar or dock (depending on your operating system) to see if it's there.
