<br>
I'm currently trying to finish a small near-infrared data reduction
pipeline in python/pyraf. As part of the alignment process I was
planning to use wregister as a rough alignment and then refine the
solution using xregister. However, while this procedure works perfectly
fine in "traditional" IRAF, I can't get it to work in pyraf.<br>
<br>
The code-snippet causing the problem is the following:<br>
<br>
iraf.images.immatch.wregister( \<br>
input=inputfile, \<br>
reference=referencefile, \<br>
output=tmp_wregister)<br>
<br>
where all inputfile, referencefile and tmp_wregister are fits-files. As
mentioned above, running wregister on exactly the same files with
identical parameters in ecl works fine, but in python it brings up this:<br>
<br>
Traceback (most recent call last):<br>

<br>
I also tried to unlearn wregister just in case some queer parameter was
causing this, but no change... <br>
<br>
Any idea what might be causing this or how to fix / work around this?<br>
<br>
Best wishes and thanks a lot in advance<br>
