I think it's the space there that's giving the script trouble.  It
expects to see the filename there but the file contents don't match
your filename.  The resulting .geo file has a filename in it that
doesn't match the filename you have on disk either, so Xastir can't
find it.

Hi Curt,

Thanks for your reply.

I have now solved the problem that Xastir could not find the file. However, it will still not load the file.

Xastir provides the following message:
Magick: No decode delegate for this image format (/usr/local/share/xastir/maps/ozi/51A_Oisterwijk_2004.ozfx3).

I also tried to rename the ozfx3 file to a tiff (the map file suggests that it is a tiff, i think), but then Xastir gives the following message:
Magick: Not a TIFF or MDI file, bad magic number 30592 (0x7780). (/usr/local/share/xastir/maps/ozi/51A_Oisterwijk_2004.tiff).

Is there something else I could try to get it working?


Thanks,
Matty
