[Gate-users] multiple sensitive detectors

Hello All:
I am trying to get familiar with the GATE system by attempting to modify
and replicate various examples and benchmarks provided with the GATE
install.
I am currently trying to set up more than one sensitive detector and am
running into a very strange error. I get the error:
***** COMMAND NOT FOUND </gate/systems/mainVol/module/attach module> *****
***** Batch is interrupted!! *****
In addition, there are twelve lines of:
Warning in <TBranch::TBranch>: No name was given to the leaf number '0' in
the leaflist of the branch ''.
But, I assume this last error is due to the improper set up.
I am following the example in the example_TrackerDetector; and they have a
line EXACTLY like my first error in their geometry construction
(/gate/systems/cylindricalPET/module/attach module - of course the main
name is different).
I think I must be missing something with the attachment of the entire
system and would appreciate any assistance someone could offer.
thank you,
Benjamin
