Actually, the real issue is why the task thought that the file was
present after a "wget" which you probably do not even have. Glad that
the fix works. You may need to delete that file if you are going to run
VLANT much later since the file may be updated by the VLA analysts
(which is why we dynamically fetch this year's file).
Glad things are moving forward.
