[daip] Big AIPS problem

[Mike Brotherton]

Hi there,

We're no longer able to operate aips for one of our user
numbers (and we do have files here we'd like to access!).
An experienced aips user we contacted has seen this problem
before but the suggested solution did not work -- she advised
we email you.  Here is the problem:

AIPS 2:                          31DEC01 AIPS:
AIPS 2:      Copyright (C) 1995-2001 Associated Universities, Inc.

AIPS 2: ZERROR: IN ZFI2   ERRNO = 22 (Invalid argument)
AIPS 2: DISK PROBLEM   CODES:       3      0

>exit
AIPS 2: SYMBOL?       EXIT
>task 'listr'
AIPS 2: SYMBOL?       TASK

Etc.  Must control-c out.  Logging in with a different user number
and things work fine.  I assume there is some user specific file
that is corrupt or something.  Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Mike Brotherton
