Hello,

I am trying to run the CCP4 program DISTANG from the command line (in order to do a translational grid search of a molecule over the asymmetric unit). But the program aborts with the following error message when I type DISTANG at the command line.

###############################################################
### CCP4 6.0: DISTANG version 6.0 : 06/09/05##
###############################################################

Please reference: Collaborative Computational Project, Number 4. 1994.
"The CCP4 Suite: Programs for Protein Crystallography". Acta Cryst. D50, 760-763.
as well as any specific reference in the program write-up.

unknown-format file is being opened on unit 1 for INPUT.

*** RWBROOK error: point code unit function
*** 1 -4 1 MMDB_F_Open
*** file : XYZIN
*** reason : cannot open a file
*** continue running, may crash ...

DISTANG: XYZOPEN: Error opening logical name XYZIN
Times: User: 0.0s System: 0.0s Elapsed: 0:00

I am using CCP4i ver 6.0.1 installed on a machine running SuSe linux 10.1. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Xie
