Dear All,

I sent this to SAC-help and got only one reply from someone else
who had had the same problem, but no solution. Since you are
working on the latest edition, I'm wondering if you have come
across, and addressed, this problem.

Regards,
Sheila.

Dear All,

SAC v. 101.1 either fails or crashes when I try to use "writegse". SAC v. 100 is OK
with writegse. Is this a known bug?

Regards,
Sheila Peacock.

SAC v. 100 (is OK)

    Sheila,

    I just checked versions 101.2 and 101.1 on my machine.
    It looks like 101.2 works, 101.1 does not.
    I will look further into this for a better answer.

    This bug was not known about. Thank you for being persistent. :)

    Cheers

      Shelia,

      After a bit of looking ...

      The SeisMgr database in SAC is responsible for writing GSE files.
      If the SeisMgr database is off the writing of GSE files fails.

      Version: If SeisMgr database on by default
      v100.0: On
      v101.1: Off (writegse fails)
      v101.2: On

      The SeisMgr database should is now be on by default in v101.2 as well
      as in future versions.

      To turn on the database set the environment variable in sh or csh (in
      v101.1 and later)
      sh% export SAC_USE_DATABASE=1
      csh% setenv SAC_USE_DATABASE 1

      Sorry for the headaches.

      Cheers
      Brian
