<div style="direction:ltr;font-family:Tahoma;color:#000000;font-size:10pt">Hi all,<br>
<br>
I'm working on a python script that makes a copy of a directory of FIFF files using python's shutil.copytree() function and then removes some metadata from each of the files in that new copy using the MNE module. It works fine on the whole but there is one
particular file which, for some reason, causes the script to break. Here is the code I use and resulting error message:<br>
<br>
>>> f = '/space/jazz/1/users/gwarner/temp_dirs_for_fiff_registration/temp_meg_storage/pp010/009/pp010_arc_raw.fif'<br>
>>> raw = Raw(f,preload=False,verbose=False)<br>
Traceback (most recent call last):<br>
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module><br>
File "<string>", line 2, in __init__<br>
File "/space/jazz/1/users/gwarner/anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mne/utils.py", line 538, in verbose<br>
return function(*args, **kwargs)<br>
File "/space/jazz/1/users/gwarner/anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mne/io/fiff/raw.py", line 114, in __init__<br>
_check_raw_compatibility(raws)<br>
File "/space/jazz/1/users/gwarner/anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mne/io/base.py", line 1995, in _check_raw_compatibility<br>
raise ValueError('raw[%d]._cals must match' % ri)<br>
ValueError: raw[1]._cals must match<br>
<br>
The strangest part is that I can open the original file without any problems:<br>
<br>
>>> f = '/space/lilli/3/users/DARPA-TRANSFER/meg/pp010/009/pp010_arc_raw.fif'<br>
>>> raw = Raw(f,preload=False,verbose=False)>>> <br>
<br>
Stranger still is that the bash diff command tells me that both versions of the file are identical.<br>
<br>
[gwarner@jazz ~]$ diff /space/jazz/1/users/gwarner/temp_dirs_for_fiff_registration/temp_meg_storage/pp010/009/pp010_arc_raw.fif /space/lilli/3/users/DARPA-TRANSFER/meg/pp010/009/pp010_arc_raw.fif<br>
[gwarner@jazz ~]$ <br>
<br>
The fact that it works fine for several hundred files before breaking here tells me that it isn't a problem with my implementation of the module, the fact that I can successfully open the original copy of the file tells me that it isn't just a bad/corrupted
file, and the result of the diff test seems to indicate that it isn't a problem with the way it was copied either. I'm using the same version of MNE each time and have all the necessary permissions. Can anyone enlighten me as to what is going on here? Please
let me know if there is any additional information I can provide to clear this up.<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>
Graham<br>
