Description
Hello! I get the error below when I try to calculate CTA sensitivity to DM structures via cssens. The spectrum of the source is defined by a file function (energy_flux.txt).
Is there another tool that does this type of calculation? Or I am doing something wrong?
Best.
variable definition: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lower energy limit (TeV) [0.03163]
Upper energy limit (TeV) [125.8925]
Calibration database [prod2]
Instrument response function [data/cta/prod2/bcf/North_5h/irf_file.fits.gz]
Effective exposure time (s) [180000.0]
Radius of ROI (deg) [5.0]
Input model definition XML file [subh2.xml] teste.xml
Source name [subh] subh

For the moment the cssens script only works for spectral models that have a Prefactor parameter, see #1889. The code needs to be modified if it should also work for other spectral forms. I will reject this issue since it doubles #1889. I will look as soon as possible in an implementation of this functionality.
