Error reading from FITS file #36

The main source of confusion I'm having is that this error doesn't seem to explicitly stem from anything on my end

There seem to be a problem with reading the photometric catalogue. If you put all your files (parameter file, filter file, photometric catalogue) in a tar archive and you attach it here, then I can take a look

Attached!

Perhaps the problem is that I never sent you the link to the Beagle manual (you can find the link also from the GitHub wiki). In your case the problem is that you're using a format (csv) which is not recognized by Beagle (it needs FITS files, you can use this script to convert an ASCII catalogue to FITS).

As a first exercise, you may find useful to run the test parameter files in BEAGLE-general/params/, e.g. fit_photometry_example.param. Also, we expanded the wiki with more information, in particular on the steps to take before launching the program.

If you're able to run the test program, then it should be straightforward to launch Beagle with your data.

Apologies for the constant comments, but I'm now getting the following error:

Again, I'm mainly confused because I'm not sure what exactly is causing the error on my end.

I'm hesitant to run test programs to completion because every time I initiate them, I get an error saying I have the wrong templates (cb vs bc), and I worry that fixing that error won't be incredibly helpful.

Hi radha, please, open a new issue for a new problem. Also, first of all you should read the manual and run the test programs, and after that run your own programs. Feel free to open new issues if you encounter problems in running the test parameter files.
