[daip] ucatalog problem

[B. Deshev]

Hi,
I'm using AIPS to reduce Westerbork data, and I met the following problem:

I had an UV catalog with 46 entries. I zaped 2 unnecessary entries (34 
and 35) and i run 'recat'.
But I did it as a task:
************
AIPS 1 17:05:43 task 'RECAT'
AIPS 1 17:05:45 inp
AIPS 1 17:05:50 go
***********

Then it asked me for user id number, disk number and a range of slots to 
recat (i gave it - 33 46).
After that it printed the following message and stop responding to the 
keyboard.
************
AIPS 1 17:06:06 TASK HAS NOT BEGUN IN   15.1 SECONDS
AIPS 1 17:06:06 Begin check for any 'standard' scratch files
AIPS 1 17:06:06 Scratch files -- destroyed:    0  still active:    0
AIPS 1 17:06:06 Resumes
************

After some time I opened a terminal and killed the process.
After that in the catalog there were only the entries between 33 and 46.

When I try to run recat for that disk now I got this:
***********
 >recat
AIPS 1: ZRENAM: DA09:UVD001001.1JL;      ALREADY EXISTS. IERR=   6
AIPS 1: DISK  9 IN-CNO   33 OUT-CNO    1 RENUMBERING PROBLEM
AIPS 1: NO FILES RENUMBERED
************


All the data is in the  /data/users/AIPS/DATA_09  directory, but the 
catalog for this disk is not working.

The question is how can i rebuild the catalog?


many thanks,
Boris
