Problem with reidentify

[T_anestis]

I have extracted an arc-lamp spectrum, and then i used the task identify in the onedpsec package. The RMS i got is low (0.12) so that one was done ok.

In the database directory that was created after i ran identify, i got the the file idlamp.

When i run reidentify i am getting nothing. I used the lamp.fits file that i ran identify as input and as output i use the same file.

I am getting the following message:
Reference image (lamp):
Images to be reidentified (lamp):

REIDENTIFY: NOAO/IRAF V2.13-BETA user@Epitidio Wed 12:35:12 04-Apr-2012
epar reidentify looks like this:

referenc= lamp Reference image
images = lamp Images to be reidentified
(interac= yes) Interactive fitting?
(section= middle line) Section to apply to two dimensional images
(newaps = yes) Reidentify apertures in images not in reference?
(overrid= no) Override previous solutions?
(refit = yes) Refit coordinate function?

(trace = yes) Trace reference image?
(step = 10) Step in lines/columns/bands for tracing an image
(nsum = 10) Number of lines/columns/bands to sum
(shift = 0.) Shift to add to reference features (INDEF to sea
(search = 0.) Search radius
(nlost = 0) Maximum number of features which may be lost

(cradius= 5.) Centering radius
(thresho= 0.) Feature threshold for centering
(addfeat= no) Add features from a line list?
(coordli= linelists$idhenear.dat) User coordinate list
(match = -3.) Coordinate list matching limit
(maxfeat= 50) Maximum number of features for automatic identif
(minsep = 2.) Minimum pixel separation

(databas= database) Database
(logfile= logfile) List of log files
(plotfil= ) Plot file for residuals
(verbose= yes) Verbose output?
(graphic= stdgraph) Graphics output device
(cursor = ) Graphics cursor input

answer = yes Fit dispersion function interactively?
crval = Approximate coordinate (at reference pixel)
cdelt = Approximate dispersion
(aidpars= ) Automatic identification algorithm parameters
(mode = ql)

Any idea on what I am doing wrong?


Thanx a lot
