    Hi, First of all sorry because of my English. I have just install the 7.1 IDL version on my Ubuntu 9.04 and there is a problem. I am trying to run some of the programs I have done with an older version. If I compile them with IDL DE everything it's all right but when I try to work with the console it appears: IDL> .rnew AjusteLor % Error opening file. File: AjusteLor The error seems so stupid and I think is due to a misconfiguration of the IDLWorkSpace but I don't know what to do. Thank you all   Nacho

    I have a similar problem. I'm using IDL Workbench for IDL 7.1.1 in Windows XP SP3 from a laptop at home. I normally use the same application in RedHat Linux when working from work, though the problem doesn't manifest. An important point I should add perhaps is that I am using a remote licence: this belongs to my institution and I access this by connecting via PuTTY and pointing certain ports at a licence server; I have my environment variables for LM_LICENSE_PATH set to look for the port set to the localhost (this works, I'm happy). Also, that I am using Subclipse to synchronise my work through a remote repository from work and home. The problem seems to be that the workspace isn't properly searched for my procedures and functions - ie., .pro files. I've set the paths with the preferences in the Workbench, though when I add an inclusion to the start of a function like (eg.): @myFunction.pro the console keeps telling me (eg.): % Error opening file. File: myFunction.pro When I look at the System variables the !DIR is a Unix address (!?!): /usr/local/itt/idl And the !PATH variable is a load of paths from my Linux - eg., my data directory, etc. - though also tacked on to the end are a couple of projects from my workspace on my local XP system, though not all the projects in my workspace. What's going on? And why can't I supply workbench with the paths and it be happy to build the contents?

    Funny thing: I'm not sure what I've done though if I reassert that I want the workspace in my path (going to the preference and clicking Apply) it worked. This may not be the solution, though once I isolate the thing I did, I'll post it here. Sorry for posting a half-baked solution: just a ray of hope for anyone finding something strange happening with their Workbench ;)
