hi Ben et al,

just when i thought i had my parallel version working nicely... i tried doing a run that had only one difference from previous:

a.rand_method = randomize.dihedrals vs previous: a.rand_method = randomize.xyz

but this throws an error:

> File "seed_align_pp.py", line 93, in doAllAlign > for results in j.yield_tasks_unordered(): > File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/modeller/parallel/job.py", line 145, in yield_tasks_unordered > for task in self._finish_all_tasks(): > File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/modeller/parallel/job.py", line 163, in _finish_all_tasks > task = self._process_event(obj, s) > File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/modeller/parallel/job.py", line 179, in _process_event > task = obj.task_results() > File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/modeller/parallel/slave.py", line 61, in task_results > r = self.get_data(allow_heartbeat=True) > File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/modeller/parallel/communicator.py", line 84, in get_data > (cmdtype, obj) = self._recv() > File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/modeller/parallel/communicator.py", line 125, in _recv > raise RemoteError(obj.exc, self) > modeller.parallel.communicator.RemoteError: <type 'NameError'>: global name 'alignment' is not defined from <Slave on localhost>

any guesses as to why? thanks again for your help.
