[Chimera-users] Chimera, Modeller, and socket modules

Hello,

I'm attempting to do some loop refinements using Modeller in Chimera while
making use of Modeller's parallel job feature to use multiple CPUs. When I
run the scripts directly through python's IDLE interface, it works.
However, when I attempt to run a custom script including parallel jobs
directly through the Chimera interface, I receive an error stating that I'm
missing a socket module. I've contacted the Modeller help email and they
referred me to you after suggesting I replace the mod9.24.exe with
python.exe in the "Modeller executable," but that didn't work. In fact, it
froze my Chimera. I've attached copies of my scripts and the error I get.
Any assistance appreciated. Thank you.
