Issues With Tutorial 'Processing With a Repository'

Support
#1

For reference I’m using the w_2015_47 distribution.

I ran into a few issues while running through this tutorial https://confluence.lsstcorp.org/display/LSWUG/Processing+an+Image+File

Under Create a Data Repository in the second box there’s a line I had to change from:
python DRPDEMO_BIN$genRetrieveList.py rawInput.txt retrieve.txt
to:
python $DRPDEMO_BIN/genRetrieveList.py rawInput.txt retrieve.txt

Then, it was necessary to move rawInput.txt to $DEMO_DIR so that it will be available to put in the appropriate options. So the box under Process the Image could look like:

mv input/rawInput.txt .
processCcdSdss.py $DATA_DIR/ --output ./calexp_dir --configfile ./processConfig.py @rawInput.txt

However, in order to get it to run on my machine I had to remove this part:

--configfile ./processConfig.py

Below I’ve included what the terminal tells me when I include the config file. I’ve tried delving into the files it references, but I’m not sure what I’m looking for.

Any insights into the issue?

I’m not very familiar with this particular example, so I’m not sure what the root of the problem is, but “correctfluxes” is an old algorithm that was removed several months ago, so it looks like the “processConfig.py” file you’re using is very much out-of-date with the stack your using (which I think is fairly recent).
