Hello
I installed 6.2 RC1 version of Seadas on my Ubuntu 10.04 and tried to modify my script (working well for 6.1 version) for it.
Modified text of script is in attached txt file

When trying to run it - i get next:
_______________________________________

And also when i try to process L1A file to L1B through GUI - i have the similar problem:

Where can be a problem? It seem it is on stage of generation of GEO file...

Thank you

I cannot replicate your error, however the error you posted suggests that a shell limit is encountered (word too long).
This may be due to the "sed" command in the modis_GEO.csh script - which is quite long even before the variable substitution.
We'll look into breaking the sed command into smaller chunks and perhaps the problem will be resolved.

That error usually means there is more than 1024 characters in a single variable.

Please do the following to help us track down the problem:

echo $PATH

csh -vx modis_GEO.csh $FILE -o $GEOFILE >&  modis_GEO.log
(with appropriate filenames)

Thanks,
Gwyn (who wrote that script)

thanks for your reply, Gwyn

sorry, i am not an expert in scripting.. what exactly should i do? I tried to run your command - but only get some error messages like "modis_GEO.csh: No such file or directory" or "csh: not found"

if i simply run "csh -vx modis_GEO.csh 2010335.0920.005_MOD01.L1A_LAC -o 2010335.0920.GEO >&  modis_GEO.log" from console - i get log file with "modis_GEO.csh: No such file or directory"
i do something wrong probably. modis_GEO.csh separately is running with list of options available.. it exists, of course.

Could you so please make full correct script for this filename, i will run it..
2010335.0920.005_MOD01.L1A_LAC

Sorry

Hi Alisa,

What's happening is you are telling the system to run a command shell on "modis_GEO.csh" in the *current directory*
So, csh is returning telling you it can't find modis_GEO.csh

if modis_GEO.csh is in your path, you just need to run:

$ modis_GEO.csh 2010335.0920.005_MOD01.L1A_LAC -o 2010335.0920.GEO

if it is not in your path, then do:

$ /my_seadas_installation_dir/run/scripts/modis_GEO.csh 2010335.0920.005_MOD01.L1A_LAC -o 2010335.0920.GEO

(substitute your seadas installation directory for 'my_seadas_installation_dir')
If the SeaDAS environment is set up correctly, then the scripts directory should already be in your path.

Try also

$ which modis_GEO.csh

Mine says:
$ which modis_GEO.csh
/home/myhomedir/seadas6.2/run/scripts/modis_GEO.csh

Hope this helps,
Dan

Alisa -

Sorry for the late reply; I only just saw your message.  If you're not in the same directory as modis_GEO.csh or 2010335.0920.005_MOD01.L1A_LAC, you'll need to say exactly where they are.  The full command will display on your terminal when you run it in the SeaDAS gui.

It may not matter in the long run; Sean is pretty sure the sed command is the problem, and is breaking it into pieces for the next release.

Gwyn

can i ask questions?
this l1a to l1b script work for modis terra?
can it work for modis aqua?
