# Troubleshooting

The Muniwin tells that my FITS files are not correct

Usually, this is a problem with the format of the date and time of observation. See bellow for more information.

The Muniwin tells that it cannot open/find files even if they are there.

If a path to files contains non-ASCII characters, like u with german umlaut, depnding on your system, the program might not be able to cope with such paths. I’m aware of this limitation, but I’m not able to fix that in short term. Meanwhile, please avoid using non-ASCII characters in paths.

The Muniwin cannot read the date and time correctly

Unfortunately, there is not any standard how to save a date and time of observation to FITS file, so every program uses its own special format. Although current version of C-Munipack can read many different formats, it may happens, that your program uses the another one. Send me one frame or two as sample (see Bug reports, new feature requests) and I will add it to the sources promptly.

The Muniwin does not run after ‘make install’

When the program is run from a command line it complains about missing shared library ‘libcmunipack-2.0.so.xxx’.

Run ‘ldconfig’ after ‘make install’. Although ‘make install’ should do the trick, on some systems it does not.
