Frequently Asked Questions
FAQ374
When reading a Gauss data set in Gaussx, an error occurs stating that the dht file is missing ?
This information applies to Gaussx for Windows, Vsn 3.7
Symptoms
A Gauss data set is read using the Gaussx OPEN statement, but an error occurs since the matching .dht file is not found.
Cause
Originally, Gauss data sets contained both a .dat file and a .dht file. New data sets contain only the .dat file.
Resolution
First make sure that your data path does not contain spaces.
Edit the file \gauss\gsx\gaussx\datax.src. Change lines 567-568 to:
if (not files(_gname,0) $== 0); @ and ((not files(_hname,0) $== 0) or ifunix);@and save.
From Gauss:
- run c:\gauss\gsx\gaussx\datax.src
- run c:\gauss\gsx\compile.prg
